Abstract
Recently it was reported that the parathyroid glands (PGs) emit autofluorescence when exposed to near infrared light, and a technique using fluorescence to detect the PGs intraoperatively was found to be useful. In some cases, however, it was difficult to detect the PGs. We sought to clarify the situation regarding such undetectable cases. The study comprised 45 patients (50 sides) who underwent thyroid or parathyroid surgery at Kushiro city...
