Use 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 کاملEffects 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 کاملPercutaneous Ethanol Injection Therapy for Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in an Elderly Tracheostomized Hemodialysis Patient
Hyperparathyroidism, either secondary or tertiary, is a major complication of end stage renal disease (ESRD). It can result in renal bone disease if left untreated. Although surgical parathyroidectomy remains the treatment of choice, the appropriate therapy to treat hyperparathyroidism in specific patient groups such as tracheostomized patients has not been elucidated. We present a case of seco...
متن کاملPalpation thyroiditis following subtotal parathyroidectomy for hyperparathyroidism
UNLABELLED Thyrotoxicosis is an under-recognised but clinically important complication of parathyroidectomy. We report a case of a 37-year-old man with tertiary hyperparathyroidism who initially developed unexplained anxiety, diaphoresis, tachycardia, tremor and hyperreflexia one day after subtotal parathyroidectomy. Thyroid biochemistry revealed suppressed thyroid stimulating hormone and eleva...
