83 patients, 86.7% women (47% premenopausal), with a median age of 52 years were evaluated. In total, 59% had biochemical hypocalcemia, while only 28.9% were symptomatic. A decrease of iPTH of greater than 9.5pg/mL in the first 6 hours had a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 92.5% to predict hypocalcemia. Discussion: most patients had a decrease in calcium during the first hours after surgery, but the patients without hypocalcemia had an appropriate increase of iPTH, while the patients that developed hypocalcemia had the opposite response. Conclusion: inappropriate reductions of iPTH in the first few hours after neck surgery for endocrine diseases, may be associated with hypocalcemia during the early postoperatory days. Clinical characteristics may be insufficient to detect the patients that will benefit from prophylactic calcium supplementation in some cases.
