“…In several studies, the incidence of transient hypocalcemia varied from 6.9% 39 to 46%, 40,41 while a rate of 0.4% to 33% has been reported for permanent hypoparathyroidism. 14,39 In the present study, transient hypoparathyroidism occurred in 27.8% of cases-568 patients-and it was mostly manifested as transient hypocalcemia, which was easily managed with oral supplementation of vitamin D and Ca +3 .…”

“…19 Another condition, i.e., associated with increased risk of hypocalcemia is Graves' disease. [20][21][22] The risk of hypocalcemia after TT has been reported to be 20 times higher with Graves' disease as compared with that of TT for a nontoxic multinodular goiter (MNG). 23,24 Hyperthyroidism is associated with increased bone resorption, due to which excess calcium is released into the blood pool.…”
