- Abstract
The article reflects on what the surgeon should do with a questionably viable gland in a parathyroid autotransplantation. It talks about the assessment of parathyroid viability and the resection of a potentially viable parathyroid gland. The impact of the resection and autotransplantion on the rate of hypoparathyroidism is discussed.
