The Technique of Intraoperative Nuclear Mapping to Facilitate Minimally Invasive Parathyroidectomy.
BACKGROUND: Despite the fact that primary hyperparathyroidism (HPTH) is the result of a single adenoma in 85% to 92% of cases and is cured following the removal of this one gland, many surgeons continue to perform a complete bilateral neck exploration for patients with primary HPTH. The advent of the sestamibi scan now enables the identification of patients with a single adenoma. METHODS: The u...
متن کاملMeasurement of intact human parathyrin by an extracting two-site immunoradiometric assay.
This is an immunoradiometric assay of intact human parathyrin, hPTH(1-84). One antibody, directed against the N-terminal part of the hormone, was produced in goats and conjugated covalently to cellulose particles. hPTH(1-84) and the N-terminal fragments were extracted from EDTA-treated plasma by these particles and thus concentrated. Another antibody, against synthetic hPTH(53-84), was raised i...
متن کاملEvaluation of diagnostic and localization of offending glands in hyperparathyroid patients in two educational hospitals of Tehran University of medical sciences during 10 years (1989-1998)
Introduction: Diagnosis and localization of offending glands in hyperparathyroid patients is a subject that has always concerned surgeons. Until two decades ago this could only be achieved through complete neck exploration by the surgeon. In recent decades, with introduction of better imaging techniques such as advanced sonography and isotopic scans, remarkable progress has been made in this ...
متن کاملSPECT-CT fusion in the diagnosis of hyperparathyroidism
Objective(s): In this study, we aimed to analyze the relationship between the diagnostic ability of fused single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) images in localization of parathyroid lesions and the size of adenomas or hyperplastic glands. Methods: Five patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and 4 patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) we...
متن کاملMinimally invasive radio-guided surgery for hyperparathyroidism: an experience with Tc-99m Sestamibi
Introduction: Radio-guided parathyroid surgery along with other minimally invasive surgeries constitutes the main surgical treatment procedures for different kinds of hyperparathyroidism. In this article we have reported our experience of radio-guided parathyroid surgery using Tc-99m sestamibi. Methods: Ten patients with hyperparathyroidism included in our study. ...
