    Parathyroid autotransplantation (PAT) is a surgical technique aimed at preventing and treating hypoparathyroidism by relocating parathyroid tissue.

  • 2

    The success of PAT depends on multiple factors, including the physiological state of the parathyroid gland and the quality of the surgical process.

  • 3

    A structured, phase-based framework for PAT guides critical decisions such as intraoperative identification, tissue processing, and evaluation of autograft function.

  • 4

    The review synthesizes current evidence to optimize surgical decision-making and improve outcomes in parathyroid autotransplantation.

  • 5

    Accurate intraoperative identification of parathyroid glands is essential, utilizing visual recognition and assessment of gland viability.
