Radioguided Parathyroidectomy with Portable Mini Gamma-Camera for the Treatment of Primary Hyperparathyroidism
Background. A proper localisation of pathological parathyroid glands is essential for a minimally invasive approach in the surgical treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHP). The recent introduction of portable mini gamma-cameras (pMGCs) enabled intraoperative scintigraphic scanning. The aim of our study is to evaluate the efficacy of this new method and compare it with the preoperative lo...

Novel surgical applications include radioguided procedures in parathyroidectomy operations. In order to investigate the feasibility of usage of the portable gamma camera in parathyroidectomy operations; intraoperative radioguided parathyroidectomy operation was performed in three hyperparathyroidism patients with inconclusive preoperative parathyroid scintigraphy results. Intraoperative portabl...

متن کاملCombined radioguided parathyroidectomy and intravenous vitamin D therapy for the treatment of uraemic hyperparathyroidism.
Therapy combining radioguided parathyroidectomy (PTx) followed by intravenous maxacalcitol was given to a 50-year-old Japanese man referred for treatment of uraemic secondary hyperparathyroidism. After laboratory and radiological examinations, the patient underwent uncomplicated, successful surgery, but glands that had not been detected radiologically before the procedure became apparent with a...
متن کاملRadioguided surgery in primary hyperparathyroidism.
UNLABELLED Surgical neck exploration is usually made in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Localization of the adenoma or detection of hyperplasia may reduce the operation period and limit the extent of the surgery. In this study the effficacy of preoperative Tc-99m MIBI scintigraphy and intraoperative gamma probe was evaluated. MATERIALS AND METHODS Six patients with PHPT had preoperative T...
