  1. Thyroid and parathyroid diseases

  2. Define the anatomy of the Neck • 1. Anterior triangle • 2. Posterior triangle

  3. Surface landmark of the neck • Thyroid cartilage • Cricoid cartilage • Anatomy of thyroid • Organs specific found in different triangle

  4. Anatomy • Embryology • Anatomy

  5. Steps in thyroid examination • Inspect the neck • Ask the patient to swallow • Palpate from the back, flex the neck slightly • Palpate both lobes and the rest of the neck for LNs • Additional tests • General and peripheral signs • Eye signs of thyrotoxicosis

  6. The gland Solitary nodule More than one nodules (nodular) Diffusely enlarged Activity of gland Hypersecretion Euthyroid hyposecretion Diagnosis of thyroid nodule

  7. Single palpable nodule • Dominant nodule of MNG • Solitary nodule • Thyroid cyst • Benign adenoma • Thyroid carcinoma • Single palpable gland (Hashimoto’s thyroiditis)

  8. More than one nodule • MNG • Anaplastic Ca

  9. Diffusely enlarged • Grave’s disease • Slight to moderate enlargment • Soft, smooth with a bruit • Colloid goitre • Moderate to gross • Bosselated, no bruit • Thyroditis • Small to moderate • Hard and tender

  10. Thyroglossal Cyst • Anterior triangle of Neck • Development of thyroid gland • Tongue tug sign • transillumnate

  11. Diagnosis of swelling of the neck • Mulitple lumps usually LNs • A single lump • Anterior triangle • LN, carotid body, cold abscess branchial cyst • Thyroid, thyroiglossal cyst • Posterior triangle • LN, cystic hygroma, pharyngeal pouch, subclavian aneurysm

  12. Thyroidectomy • Conventional approach • Minimally invasive approach

  13. Thyroidectomy • Subtotal • Near total • Lobectomy • Isthmectomy • Total

  14. Complications • Haemorrhage • Respiratory obstruction • Recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis • Thyroid insufficiency • Parathyroid insufficiency • Thyrotoxic crisis • Keloid scar • Stitch granuloma

  15. Goiter=enlargement of thyroid • Grade 0: no goiter • Grade 1: palpable but not visible • Grade 2: Visible on neutral position • Grade 3: goiter visible at a distance

  16. Approach to thyroid nodule

  17. Hypoparathyroidism • Parathyroid tetany due to hypcalcaemia • Usually after thyroidectomy rarely autoimmune disease • Transient vs permanent • Tingling and numbness of face • Cramps in hand and feet • Obsterician’s hand • Chvostek’s sign; Trousseau’s sign

  18. Hyperparathyoridism • Primary • Secondary • Teritary

  19. Primary hyperparathyoridism • Pentad of symptoms • Painful bones • Kidney stones • Abdominal groans • Psychic moans • Fatigue overtones

  20. Preoperative localization • USG • Sestamibi scanning • CT scan • MRI

  21. Indications for surgery • Symptoms • Asymptomatic • Ca > 1 mg/dL above normal range • 24-hr urine ca >400mg/day • 30% decrease in CrCL • Bone density greater than 2.5 SD below peak bone mass • Age <50 • Medical surveillance not possible

  22. Parathyroidectomy • Bilateral neck exploration • Unilateral neck exploration • Focused parathyroidectomy
