ABSTRACT

Primary hyperparathyroidism is the main cause of hypercalcemia in ambulatory patients. Classic surgical resolution of this disease includes bilateral cervical exploration with exhibition of the four parathyroid glands and evaluation of the suspicious gland with a rapid biopsy. We report a 79 years old female with a primary hyperparathyroidism in whom the adenoma causing the disease was located with the help of an intraoperatory gamma-probe that detected the zone of higher radiation counting of Tc99m Sestamibi, that was injected preoperatively. The patient was discharged with normal serum calcium and phosphate levels

ABSTRACT

Se evalúa la utilidad clínica de la prueba de sobrecarga a la glucosa oral (PSG), en 513 gestantes con factores de riesgo de diabetes. De las 933 PSG efectuadas el 13,7% fueron positivas (valor límite: glicemia en plasma a la hora*150 mg/dl.); en el 82,8% de los casos fueron realizadas después de las 20 semanas de gestación. De las 128 PSG positivas se obtuvieron 73 Test de tolerancia de glucosa positivos. (Criterio O'Sullivan). La prevalencia de diabetes gestacional encontradas en este grupo fue de 15,2%. De los factores de riesgo más frecuentes (antec. de familiar diabético, obesidad y macrosomía) no hubo diferencia entre la población general en estudio y el grupo de diabéticas gestacionales. Conclusión: La PSG por su fácil aplicación, bajo costo y excelente tolerancia es un examen que debería ser incluido en los exámenes prenatales habituales como screening de diabetes gestacional en nuestro medio
