The thyroid and parathyroid glands are crucial components of the endocrine system, and surgical interventions are often necessary to address various conditions affecting these glands. Understanding the surgical importance and anatomy of the thyroid and parathyroid glands is essential for endocrine surgeons, otolaryngologists, and healthcare professionals involved in the management of thyroid and parathyroid disorders. Surgical interventions aim to restore hormonal balance, treat underlying conditions, and optimize patient outcomes.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

3. The thyroid gland
derives its name
from the
thyroid cartilage

4. Function
The thyroid gland is
an endocrine gland
that is responsible for
the secretion of
thyroxin and
thyrocalcitonin
5. Lobes
The thyroid gland
consists of two lobes
united in front of the
second, third and
fourth tracheal rings
by an isthmus of
gland tissue.

an injectable radioactive
compound. When
injected into the
bloodstream the
compound will be
concentrated in the
thyroid gland resulting in
an image of the gland

The pre-tracheal
fascia attaches the
thyroid gland to the
trachea and larynx
thus the thyroid
moves upwards on
swallowing, an
important diagnostic
feature for lumps in
the neck

22. Blood supply
The thyroid gland is very
vascular
The vessels lie between
the capsule and the pre-
tracheal fascia.
In some pathological
conditions such as
thyrotoxicosis, owing to
its high vascularity, the
blood flow can be heard
with a stethoscope as a
bruit

at the level of
the cricoid

31. Inferior thyroid artery
The tortuous course of
the inferior thyroid artery
is due to the fact that in
every swallow the thyroid
gland ascends a few
centimeters and must
naturally drag its blood
supply with it.
If this artery has no
capability to elongate, it
would be traumatized
32. Inferior thyroid artery
Divides outside the
pre-tracheal fascia
into four or five
branches that pierce
the fascia separately
to reach the lower
pole of the gland.

33. The recurrent laryngeal nerve lies normally behind the
branches of the inferior thyroid artery
34. The recurrent laryngeal nerve lies normally behind the
branches of the inferior thyroid artery
but it is common for the nerve to pass between the
artery branches before they pass through the fascia.
35. The recurrent

39. To avoid injury to the
external laryngeal
nerve, the superior
thyroid artery is
ligated and sectioned
near the superior
pole of the thyroid
gland where it is notnot
so closely related to
the nerve as it is at
its origin.
40. Section of the

nerve produces
weakness of voice,
since the vocal fold

41. The recurrent laryngeal nerve has a variable
relationship to the inferior thyroid artery
because of its proximity to the inferior thyroid
artery and the pre-tracheal fascia it may be
injured while ligating the artery during
thyroidectomy
42. hence the advisability of
ligating the inferior
thyroid artery well lateral
to the gland before it
begins to divide into its
terminal branches.

43. The variable relationship of the inferior thyroid
artery to the recurrent laryngeal nerve makes
thyroid surgery a potential risk to normal
speech
The recurrent laryngeal nerve supplies all the
intrinsic muscles of the larynx
44. it is advisable that a
surgeon about to perform
a thyroidectomy
examines the vocal cords
prior to operation, so that
if there is any problem
postoperatively one
knows at least the origin
of the lesion.
45. Recurrent laryngeal nerve damage
Is a complication of
thyroid surgery that
causes paralysis of
the vocal cords
When bilateral the
voice is almost
absent as the two
vocal folds cannot be
adducted.
46. Recurrent laryngeal nerve damage
A unilateral recurrent
laryngeal nerve injury
may not be noticed in
normal speech but
would be very
detrimental to a
singers career.

52. Thyroidae ima artery
In about 10% of
individuals, an unpaired
artery, the thyroidae ima
(L. ima = lowest) is a
small occasional artery
from the brachiocephalic
trunk, or left common
carotid artery, or direct
from the arch of the aorta
54. Thyroidae ima artery
The possible presence of
the thyroid ima artery
must be remembered
when incising the trachea
inferior to the isthmus.
As the thyroidae ima runs
anterior to the trachea, it
is a potential source of
serious bleeding
55. Thyroid veins
The veins are three in
number on each side
the superior
thyroid vein from
the upper pole follows
the artery and enters
the internal jugular
vein or the common
facial vein

the inferior thyroid
veins form a plexus

58. As the inferior thyroid
veins cover the anterior
surface of the trachea
inferior to isthmus, they
are potential sources of
bleeding during
tracheotomy (also
remember the situation of
the thyroidae ima artery).

59. Development of the thyroid gland
The gland begins as
a diverticulum from
the floor of the
embryonic pharynx
60. Development of the thyroid gland
The diverticulum
grows caudally
superficial to the
hyoid before dividing
into two lobes
The stem of the
diverticulum, the
thyroglossal duct,
normally disappears
hyoid
Thyroglossal duct
61. Development of the thyroid gland
After the tongue has
developed, it can be seen
that the point of
outgrowth of the
thyroglossal duct is the
foramen cecum (of
Morgagni) [Morgagni,
Giovanni Battista, 1682-1771, a
Padua anatomist and pathologist,
also known for hydatid of
Morgagni (appendix testis) and
anal columns (of Morgagni)].
62. Thyroglossal cyst
cysts derived from the
duct may also appear
anywhere between
the foramen cecum
and the normal
position in the midline
of the neck
1. Beneath foramen cecum
2. Floor of the mouth
3. Suprahyoid
4. Subhyoid
5. On thyroid cartilage
6. At level of cricoid cartilage
63. Thyroglossal cyst
Can be diagnosed
because
characteristically it
moves upwards as
the patient puts his
tongue out.
65. Although the
duct lies
ventral to the
hyoid bone,
it passes up
for a short
distance
behind the
body, which
therefore
has to be
excised with
the duct
67. Lingual thyroid
Rarely the thyroid
fails to descend
during development
resulting in the
development of a
lingual thyroid
68. Ectopic thyroid
Failure of descent
mar result in a
superior cervical
thyroid in the region
of the hyoid bone
the thyroid may
sometimes
descended too far
and be found in the
superior mediastinum
69. Parathyroid glands
Two on each side
They are yellow-brown
endocrine glands, about
the size of a small pea
(about 0.5x0.8 cm
ovoids)
They are important
because of their role in
calcium metabolism.
They secrete
parathormone that
mobilizes bone calcium
and increases gut and
kidney calcium
absorption
71. Superior parathyroid glands
more constant in
position
embedded in the
posterior surface of
the thyroid gland, a
short distance above
the entry of inferior
thyroid artery (and the
level of the cricoid
cartilage).
74. The thymusthymus also develops from the third pouch and
may therefore carry the inferior parathyroidparathyroid with it
when it descends into the thorax.

76. Parathyroid glands
Awareness of the
close relationship
between the
parathyroid glands
and the thyroid gland
is essential to prevent
removal or damage of
the parathyroid
glands during
thyroidectomy.
78. The variability in position of the parathyroid glands may
create a problem during total thyroidectomy; in this case the
parathyroid glands are saved by following their small
vessels which are kept intact before the thyroid is removed.
79. When tracheostomy is done electively after
establishing an airway with an endotracheal tube,
a short transverse incision is made one cm below
the cricoid cartilage
Tracheostomy
EndotrachealtubeEndotrachealtube
85. The second tracheal
ring is precisely
identified and divided
vertically in the midline,
extending the incision
through the third ring in
most cases
The first ring is
preserved
Tracheostomy
86. A thyroid retractor gently
spreads the tracheal
opening.
The tracheostomy tube
with obturator is
introduced after

only is tied with a tape
around the neck but also
is sutured to the skin.

88. Tracheostomy
The endotracheal tube is
removed only when the
tracheostomy tube has
been shown to provide a
satisfactory airway
If there is any question
about where the tip of the
tube lies, a flexible
bronchoscope may be
used to check the distal
position.
89. The tracheostomy tube
should be just large
enough to provide an
adequate airway for the
patient. Larger tubes can
only cause damage.
It must be remembered
that most women, even
when obese, have
tracheas smaller in
diameter than those of
men
