Patients with high BMI seem to require operations of greater duration and sustain more morbidity after cervical endocrine procedures than patients with normal BMI, but these differences may not be clinically significant. Thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy can be performed safely, with appropriate surgical decision making.
