Effects of percutaneous ethanol injection therapy on subsequent surgical parathyroidectomy
Background. Renal hyperparathyroidism (RHPT) is a serious complication of long-term dialysis treatment. Two intervention methods can be administered to treat RHPT, namely percutaneous ethanol injection therapy (PEIT) and a parathyroidectomy (PTx). PEIT is associated with a significant adverse event, adhesion formation. This study was performed to investigate the effect of PEIT on subsequent PTx...
متن کاملUse of Percutaneous Ethanol Injection Therapy for Recurrent Secondary Hyperparathyroidism after Subtotal Parathyroidectomy
We evaluated the efficacy of percutaneous ethanol injection therapy (PEIT) as a therapeutic option for recurrence of secondary hyperparathyroidism after subtotal parathyroidectomy in ESRD patients. Six patients underwent PEIT. A mean of 1.3 ± 0.8 ethanol injections was performed. Nodular volume was 1.5 ± 1.7 cm(3), and 2.8 ± 2.8 cm(3) of ethanol was injected per patient. After ethanol injection...
متن کاملPost-renal transplant calciphylaxis: treatment of hyperparathyroidism by percutaneous ethanol injection therapy and parathyroidectomy
A 50-year-old Asian woman presented with finger calciphylaxis in the fourth and fifth distal fingers with vascular calcification of both hands (Figure 1). The patient had undergone haemodialysis due to diabetes mellitus nephropathy for 8 years and allogeneic kidney transplantation 46 months ago. There was an enlarged parathyroid gland in the right lower thyroid bed. The patient underwent percut...
متن کاملAssessment of ultrasound guided percutaneous ethanol injection and parathyroidectomy in patients with tertiary hyperparathyroidism.
BACKGROUND Tertiary hyperparathyroidism continues to cause significant morbidity in patients with chronic renal failure. This is frequently resistant to medical management and may ultimately require a surgical parathyroidectomy. Recent studies have reported upon the technique of percutaneous ethanol ablation for both primary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism. In this study we report on a 5 year ...
متن کاملUltrasonographic diagnosis of parathyroid glands and percutaneous ethanol injection therapy.
The first choice for imaging diagnosis of parathyroid gland (PTG) abnormalities is ultrasonography with a high-frequency probe. The patient must be positioned correctly when performing either imaging or percutaneous ethanol injection (PEIT) of the PTG. The enlarged PTGs are examined by ultrasonic tomography using 3D measurements, and it is important to evaluate blood flow; the PTGs are hypervas...
