Same-day parathyroidectomy for primary hyperparathyroidism -an over 20-year practice.

Same-day parathyroidectomies have been shown to be safe and has become the typical practice for high-volume parathyroid surgeons over the last decade. Complications such as postoperative hematoma or hypocalcemia were previously shown to be incompletely mitigated by increased LOS or inpatient surgery, although demographics are considered to increase the odds of inpatient parathyroidectomy.
