Article Abstract

Hypoparathyroidism (HP) after head and neck surgery leads to hypocalcemia and related comorbidities. This study aimed to evaluate bladder functions using uroflowmetry and lower urinary tract (UT) function questionnaires in patients who developed postoperative HP. This study included 30 premenopausal women who developed postoperative HP and 30 healthy control groups. Bladder functions were evaluated using uroflowmetry, the Overactive Bladder-Validated 8 (OAB-V8) form, and the Interstitial Cystitis Symptom Index/Interstitial Cystitis Problem Index (ICSI/ICPI) questionnaire. ICSI and ICPI scores and OAB-V8 scores in the postoperative HP group were significantly higher than controls. Patients with postoperative HP had statistically higher post-voiding residue (PVR) values than the controls. A negative correlation was found between the ICSI score, ICPI score, OAB-V8 score, PVR levels, serum calcium and PTH levels. This study demonstrated disturbed lower UT functions in patients with postoperative HP. Bladder dysfunction and lower UT symptoms should be considered in patients with postoperative HP.

IntroductionVenous sinus stenting (VSS) is an effective, less invasive alternative to ventriculoperitoneal shunting (VPS) for idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). While efficacy is comparable, with some evidence favoring VSS for headache control, perioperative costs remain under-characterized due to reliance on reimbursement rates rather than actual expenditures.ObjectiveTo compare the perioperative cost of elective VSS and VPS for IIH, including outpatient workup and follow-up costs, using detailed institutional cost data.

Importance: Stoma reversal is associated with few complications. However, recent studies show that 1 in 3 patients develop an incisional hernia, for which half of the patients receive surgical correction.

Objective: To investigate whether prophylactic synthetic mesh placement in the retromuscular space during stoma reversal reduces the rate of stomal site incisional hernias.
