Surgical management of primary hyperparathyroidism has undergone several chances in recent years and historically has required bilateral neck exploration with identification of the parathyroid adenoma together with three normal glands. The intraoperative hormone assay allows a more limited procedure by confirming complete removal of hypersecreting tissue. The Authors report surgical treatment of 24 consecutive hyperparathyroidism and conclude that evaluation of intraoperative hormone assay accurately predicts the determination of adequacy of resection and the correct outcome of surgery in patients with parathyroid adenomas.

Abstract
Surgical management of primary hyperparathyroidism has undergone several chances in recent years and historically has required bilateral neck exploration with identification of the parathyroid adenoma together with three normal glands. The intraoperative hormone assay allows a more limited procedure by confirming complete removal of hypersecreting tissue. The Authors report surgical treatment of 24 consecutive hyperparathyroidism and conclude that evaluation of intraoperative hormone assay accurately predicts the determination of adequacy of resection and the correct outcome of surgery in patients with parathyroid adenomas.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
