    Author: Ramirez A, Nwariaku F, Moo-Young T, McMullin JL.
    Journal: Surg Clin North Am; 2024 Aug; 104(4):929-937. PubMed ID: 38944509.
    Abstract:
    While there has been great progress in the past few decades in the management of endocrine surgery disorders, with adoption of new technologies and approaches, standardization of practice patterns, and guideline recommendations, unequal implementation of these improvement has led to differences in access and outcomes. Health disparities are well documented in this population; however, literature lacks discussion of strategies to decrease disparities. In this article, the authors will describe the current status of health care-related disparities in endocrine surgical care, and discuss opportunities for future investigation and issue an urgent call to action items.
