What happens during the disease - postprocedural hypoparathyroidism

Postprocedural hypoparathyroidism is a condition caused by the inadvertent removal of the parathyroid glands during a surgical procedure. this can lead to a decrease in the production of parathyroid hormone, resulting in a decrease in calcium levels and an increase in phosphorus levels. this can lead to a wide range of symptoms, including muscle cramps, fatigue, numbness and tingling in the hands and feet, and seizures. treatment typically involves calcium and vitamin d supplementation to replace lost calcium, as well as medications to help control symptoms.

Postprocedural hypoparathyroidism - Prevention
