الوصف: Introduction The aim of this study is to assess the outcomes of parathyroid gland reimplantation with PR-FaST technique in patients undergoing thyroid surgery, focusing on graft functionality over a 5-year follow-up period. Materials and Methods We analyzed data from 131 patients who underwent parathyroid reimplantation using the PR-FaST technique during thyroid surgery due to inadvertent parathyroid removal or evident vascular damage. Postoperative evaluations included serum calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and phosphorus (P) analyses on the 1st and 2nd postoperative days, at 10 days, and at 1, 3, 6 months, 1 year, and 5 years of follow-up. Additionally, the mean values of serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) concentration were measured from blood samples collected from both the reimplanted arm (iPTH RA) and non-reimplanted arm (iPTH NRA) within the same period. Results Among 131 patients, at 10 days post-surgery, only 46 patients (35.1%) out of 131 exhibited graft viability (iPTH ratio >1.5). This percentage increased to 72.8% (94 patients) after 1 month and further to 87.8% (108 patients) after 3 months post-surgery. At 1 year, 84.7% of patients showed good graft functionality. After 5 years, the percentage remained stable, with graft viability observed in 81.3% of patients. Only 91 of the initial 131 patients completed follow-up up to 5 years, with a dropout rate of 30.5 %. Conclusions Parathyroid reimplantation using the PR-FaST technique is a viable option for patients undergoing thyroidectomy and has been shown to be a reproducible and effective technique in most patients, with sustained graft functionality and parathyroid hormone production over a 5-year follow-up period.
