Brief Summary
Accurate identification and evaluation of the parathyroid glands (PGs) intraoperatively is critical to reduce the incidence of postoperative hypoparathyroidism after total thyroidectomy. Near-infrared fluorescence imaging (NIFI), including the autofluorescence (AF) and indocyanine green fluorescence (ICGF) imaging, is a promising technique to protect PGs. This study aimed to assess whether the combined use of AF and ICGF could reduce the incidence of postoperative hypoparathyroidism and improve the identification and evaluation of PGs during total thyroidectomy.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Identification of parathyroid glands (PGs) by NIR/ICG camera detected high-contrast
İntravenous injection of ICG dye, to identify PGs under NIR (High-contrast fluorescence seen or not)
1 year
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Central lymph node dissetion (CLND)
1 year
Study Arms (2)
Indocyanine green group
EXPERIMENTALIdentification of parathyroid glands (PGs) Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence visualization of PGs, for only experimental group
Traditional surgery group
ACTIVE COMPARATORConventional means of identification and assessment of PGs are mainly based on surgeon-dependent identification of their anatomical location and appearance (color, shape, etc.) by the naked eye.
Interventions
ICG is a fluorescent dye which binds tightly to plasma proteins and becomes confined to the vascular system.
Conventional means of identification and assessment of PGs are mainly based on surgeon-dependent identification of their anatomical location and appearance (color, shape, etc.) by the naked eye.
