## Abstract ## Background. Rapid parathyroid hormone (PTH) assay has been applied to predict hypocalcemia after thyroidectomy compared with conventional close monitoring of serum calcium levels. We evaluated the reliability of intraoperative intact PTH (ioPTH) assay to predict hypocalcemia after t
## Abstract ## __Background.__ Parathyroid lipoadenoma is an uncommon tumor that may be difficult to diagnose on intraoperative frozen section. Intraoperative parathyroid hormone (PTH) measurement is useful in assessing the adequacy of parathyroidectomy. This case demonstrates the value of intraop
