Abstract：
:An improved technic for total thyroidectomy, utilizing magnification, is described. A method of preservation of the parathyroid glands with intact blood supply has been developed. The completeness of total thyroidectomy has been confirmed in 91 per cent of patients studied by postoperative radioactive iodine scan.
