ABSTRACT Objective: The study sought to determine the clinical features of hyperparathyroid-induced hypercalcemic crisis (HIHC) along with treatment options and outcomes. Subjects and methods: This is a retrospective analysis of our historical cohort of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Patients were divided in groups according to their calcium levels and clinical presentation. HIHC (group 1) was assumed when patients had high calcium levels and needed emergency hospitalization. Group 2 was composed of patients with calcium levels above 16 mg/dL or patients who needed hospitalization for classical PHPT symptoms. Group 3 was composed of clinically stable patients with calcium levels between 14 and 16 mg/dL, who were electively treated. Results: Twenty-nine patients had calcium levels above 14 mg/dL. HIHC group had seven patients, and initial clinical measures had good response in two patients, moderate response in one patient, and poor response in four patients. All poor responders underwent immediate surgery, and one of them died due to HIHC complications. Group 2 had nine patients, and all were successfully treated during hospitalization. Group 3 had 13 patients, and all had a successful elective surgery. Conclusion: HIHC is a life-threatening condition that requires fast clinical intervention. Surgery is the only definitive treatment and should be planned for all patients. Poor response to initial clinical measures should direct treatment toward surgery to avoid disease progression and clinical deterioration.

ABSTRACT Several drugs are available for the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Over the last decades, most patients requiring pharmacological intervention were offered antiresorptive drugs as first-line therapy, while anabolic agents were considered a last resource for those with therapeutic failure. However, recent randomized trials in patients with severe osteoporosis have shown that anabolic agents reduce fractures to a greater extent than antiresorptive medications. Additionally, evidence indicates that increases in bone mineral density (BMD) are maximized when patients are treated with anabolic agents first, followed by antiresorptive therapy. This evidence is key, considering that greater increases in BMD during osteoporosis treatment are associated with a more pronounced reduction in fracture risk. Thus, international guidelines have recently proposed an individualized approach to osteoporosis treatment based on fracture risk stratification, in which the stratification risk has been refined to include a category of patients at very high risk of fracture who should be managed with anabolic agents as first-line therapy. In this document, the Brazilian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism and the Brazilian Association of Bone Assessment and Metabolism propose the definition of very high risk of osteoporotic fracture in postmenopausal women, for whom anabolic agents should be considered as first-line therapy. This document also reviews the factors associated with increased fracture risk, trials comparing anabolic versus antiresorptive agents, efficacy of anabolic agents in patients who are treatment naïve versus those previously treated with antiresorptive agents, and safety of anabolic agents.

ABSTRACT Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a hypercalcemic disorder that occurs when one or more parathyroid glands produces excessive parathyroid hormone (PTH). PHPT is typically treated with surgery, and it remains the only definitive therapy, whose techniques have evolved over previous decades. Advances in preoperative localization exams and the intraoperative PTH monitoring have become the cornerstones of recent parathyroidectomy techniques, as minimally invasive techniques are appropriate for most patients. Nevertheless, these techniques, are not suitable for PHPT patients who are at risk for multiglandular disease, especially in those who present with familial forms of PHPT that require bilateral neck exploration. This manuscript also explores other conditions that warrant special consideration during surgical treatment for PHPT: normocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism, pregnancy, reoperation for persistent or recurrent PHPT, parathyroid carcinoma, and familial and genetic forms of hyperparathyroidism.

ABSTRACT Objective To measure type 1 serum amino-terminal propeptide procollagen (P1NP) and type 1 cross-linked C-terminal telopeptide collagen (CTX) before parathyroidectomy (PTX) in PHPT patients, correlating these measurements with bone mineral density (BMD) changes. Subjects and methods 31 primary hyperparathyroidism (HPTP) were followed from diagnosis up to 12-18 months after surgery. Serum levels of calcium, parathyroid hormone (PTH) vitamin D, CTX, P1NP, and BMD were measured before and 1 year after surgery. Results One year after PTX, the mean BMD increased by 8.6%, 5.5%, 5.5%, and 2.2% in the lumbar spine, femoral neck (FN), total hip (TH), and distal third of the nondominant radius (R33%), respectively. There was a significant correlation between BMD change 1 year after the PTX and CTX (L1-L4: r = 0.614, p < 0.0003; FN: r = 0.497, p < 0.0051; TH: r = 0.595, p < 0.0005; R33%: r = 0.364, p < 0.043) and P1NP (L1-L4: r = 0,687, p < 0,0001; FN: r = 0,533, p < 0,0024; TH: r = 0,642, p < 0,0001; R33%: r = 0,467, p < 0,0079) preoperative levels. The increase in 25(OH)D levels has no correlation with BMD increase (r = -0.135; p = 0.4816). On linear regression, a minimum preoperative CTX value of 0.331 ng/mL or P1NP of 37.9 ng/mL was associated with a minimum 4% increase in L1-L4 BMD. In TH, minimum preoperative values of 0.684 ng/mL for CTX and 76.0 ng/mL for P1NP were associated with a ≥ 4% increase in BMD. Conclusion PHPT patients presented a significant correlation between preoperative levels of turnover markers and BMD improvement 1 year after PTX.

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the usefulness of a third-generation PTH assay in the diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Subjects and methods Forty-one PHPT patients (4 men and 37 women) with 61.2 ± 10.9 (mean ± SD) years, were studied and had PTH levels measured with two different methods using the same immunochemiluminescent assay plataform (Elecsys 2010 System, Roche). We compared a second-generation assay (I-PTH) with a third-generation PTH assay (Bio-PTH). Two populations of 423 and 120 healthy adults with serum 25OHD levels above 25 ng/mL were used to define normal values in the I-PTH and Bio-PTH assays respectively. Results Normal PTH values based in the healthy adults population were 24.2-78.0 pg/mL for the I-PTH assay and 19.9-58.5 pg/mL for Bio-PTH assay. In PHPT patients, PTH values ranged from 67 to 553 pg/mL (median: 168 pg/mL) using the I-PTH assay and from 55 to 328 pg/mL (median: 111 pg/mL) using the Bio-PTH assay. Results obtained with the Bio-PTH assay were significantly lower (p < 0.0001, Wilcoxon). In general I-PTH and Bio-PTH showed highly significant correlation (r = 0.952, p < 0.0001). Passing–Bablok analysis gave a regression equation of Bio PTH = 13.44 + 0.59 x intact PTH. PHPT patients had 25OHD levels ranging from 4 to 36 ng/mL (mean 16.2 ng/mL); 35 subjects (85.3%) had values bellow 25 ng/mL. Conclusion Our results demonstrate that both second and third generation PTH methods are strongly correlated in PHPT patients and control subjects. Lower results with Bio-PTH tests are expected in function of the assay specificity determined by the amino-terminal antibody used.

Resumo Introdução: O hiperparatireoidismo é uma complicação frequente da doença renal crônica (DRC). A paratireoidectomia (PTX) total com autotransplante (AT) de tecido paratireoideano é uma opção terapêutica para os indivíduos que não respondem ao manejo clínico. Objetivo: Avaliar a resposta do tecido paratireoideano enxertado durante hipocalcemia induzida em pacientes portadores de DRC submetidos à PTX total com AT. Métodos: Dezoito pacientes portadores de hiperparatiroidismo associado à DRC foram submetidos à PTX total com AT de tecido paratireoideano selecionado por estereomicroscopia entre Abril e Outubro de 2008 em nosso serviço. Onze indivíduos (oito com transplante renal funcionante, 2 em diálise peritoneal e 1 em hemodiálise) apresentavam boa condição clínica e foram elegíveis para o teste. Induziu-se hipocalcemia por infusão de bicarbonato de sódio em 5 controles normais e nos pacientes 6-12 meses após a PTX. Resultados: A hipocalcemia determinou um aumento importante dos níveis de PTH intacto (iPTH) no grupo controle 4 minutos após a infusão de bicarbonato. Nos pacientes, houve uma redução significativa do cálcio ionizado [de 1,17 ± 0,12 para 1,09 ± 0,11 (media ± EP) mmol/L] no 4º minuto (p < 0,001) ilustrando o nadir do teste. No 10º minuto não houve elevação do cálcio ionizado comparado ao 4º minuto (p = 0,451). Os níveis de iPTH foram de 34,8 ± 18,6 para 34,1 ± 18,8 pg/mL (valor basal semelhante ao 4º minuto p = 0,087) e se mantiveram no 10º minuto (33,3 ± 19,6 pg/mL p = 0,693). Conclusão: Em pacientes portadores de DRC testados 6-12 meses depois da cirurgia, o enxerto de tecido paratireoideano revelou incapacidade de resposta à hipocalcemia induzida por bicarbonato sem mudança dos níveis de iPTH.
Abstract Introduction: Hyperparathyroidism is a frequent complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Total parathyroidectomy (PTX) with parathyroid tissue autotransplantation (AT) is a treatment option in those individuals that do not respond to clinical management. Objective: To evaluate grafted parathyroid tissue response during induced hypocalcemia among CKD patients who underwent total PTX with AT. Methods: Eighteen patients with renal hyperparathyroidism were submitted to total PTX with parathyroid AT selected by stereomicroscopy between April and October 2008. Eleven (eight with successful kidney transplantation, 2 in peritoneal dialysis and 1 in hemodialysis) were clinically stable and eligible for testing. Hypocalcemia was induced using sodium bicarbonate infusion in 5 healthy controls and in patients 6-12 months after surgery. Results: Among controls, hypocalcemia elicited a major rise in intact PTH (iPTH) levels 4 minutes after bicarbonate infusion. In patients, a significant decrease in ionized calcium concentration was observed [from 1.17 ± 0.12 to 1.09 ± 0.11 mean (± SE) mmol/L] in the 4th minute (p < 0.001) illustrating the nadir point. In the 10thminute, ionized calcium did not show a statistical increase compared to the 4th minute (p = 0.451). The iPTH levels ranged from 34.8 ± 18.6 to 34.1 ± 18.8 pg/mL (similar values between base line and 4thminute p = 0.087) and did not change in the 10th minute (33.3 ± 19,6 pg/ mL p = 0.693). Conclusion: Among CKD patients tested 6-12 months after surgery, grafted parathyroid tissue revealed a blunted secretory capacity during bicarbonate induced hypocalcemia with no changes in iPTH levels.

INTRODUCTION: Several methods have been proposed to improve operative success in renal hyperparathyroidism. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate stereomicroscopy in parathyroid tissue selection for total parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation in secondary (SHPT)/tertiary (THPT) hyperparathyroidism. METHODS: 118 renal patients underwent surgery from April of 2000 to October 2009. They were divided into two groups: G1, 66 patients operated from April of 2000 to May of 2005, with tissue selection based on macroscopic observation; G2, 52 patients operated from March of 2008 to October 2009 with stereomicroscopy for tissue selection searching for the presence of adipose cells. All surgeries were performed by the same surgeon. Patients presented SHPT (dialysis treatment) or THPT (renal-grafted). Follow-up was 12-36 months. Intra-operative parathyroid hormone (PTH) was measured in 100/118 (84.7%) patients. RESULTS: Data are presented as means. G1 included 66 patients (38 SHPT, 24 females/14 males; 40.0 years of age; 28 THPT, 14 females/14 males; 44 years of age). G2 included 52 patients (29 SHPT, 11 females/18 males; 50.7 years of age; 23 THPT, 13 females/10 males, 44.4 years of age). SHPT patients from G2 presented preoperative serum calcium higher than those of SHPT patients in G1 (p < 0.05), suggesting a more severe disease. Definitive hypoparathyroidism was found in seven of 118 patients (5.9%). Graft-dependent recurrence occurred in four patients, two in each group. All occurred in dialysis patients. CONCLUSION: Stereomicroscopy in SHPT/THPT surgical treatment may be a useful tool to standardize parathyroid tissue selection. .
INTRODUÇÃO: Diversos métodos têm sido propostos com intuito de melhorar índices de sucesso cirúrgico no tratamento do hiperparatiroidismo associado à doença renal crônica (DRC). OBJETIVOS: Avaliar uso do estereomicroscópio na seleção de tecido paratiroideano na paratiroidectomia total com autoimplante em pacientes com DRC. MÉTODOS: 118 pacientes DRC operados entre 04/2000-10/2009 foram divididos em: G1-66 pacientes operados entre 04/2000-05/2005 cuja seleção de tecido foi realizada por método convencional (macroscopia); G2-52 pacientes operados entre 03/2008-10/2009, cuja seleção de tecido foi realizada com uso da estereomicroscopia: Leica-Stereomicroscope (amplificação: 10×-80×). Pacientes foram ainda categorizados em hiperparatiroidismo secundário (HPS) ou terciário (HPT) (HPS-diálise/HPT-transplantados renais). Seguimento pós-operatório: 12-36 meses. PTH intraoperatório medido 100/118 pacientes (84.7%). Todos pacientes foram operados pelo mesmo cirurgião. RESULTADOS: Dados em média. G1, 66 pacientes (38 HPS, 24f/14m; 40 anos; 28 HPT, 14f/14m; 44 anos). G2, 52 pacientes (29 HPS, 11f/18m; 50,7 anos; 23 HPT, 13f/10m; 44,4 anos). Pacientes dialíticos do G2 apresentaram cálcio pré-operatório maior que G1 (p < 0,05), sugerindo doença mais severa. Hipoparatiroidismo definitivo: 7/118 (5,9%) pacientes: G1, 4/66 (6%); G2, 3/52 (5,7%). Recorrência do hiperparatiroidismo no autoimplante: 4 pacientes, 2 em cada grupo. Todas foram em pacientes em diálise. CONCLUSÃO: Estereomicroscopia no tratamento do hiperparatiroidismo associado à DRC é útil na padronização da técnica de seleção de tecido para o autoimplante. .

Introdução: O hiperparatireoidismo é uma consequência metabólica esperada na doença renal crônica (DRC). Paratireoides (PT) ectópicas e/ou supranumerárias podem ser causa de falha cirúrgica nos pacientes submetidos à paratireoidectomia total (PTX). Objetivo: Definir cirurgicamente a localização das PT, em pacientes com hiperparatireoidismo associado à DRC, e correlacionar esses achados com os exames pré-operatórios. Materiais e métodos: Foi conduzido um estudo retrospectivo com 166 pacientes submetidos à PTX. A localização das PT no intraoperatório foi registrada, sendo classificada como tópica ou ectópica. A localização pré-operatória, definida pela ultrassonografia (USG) e pela cintilografia Tc99m-Sestamibi (MIBI), foi comparada com aos achados cirúrgicos. Resultados: Nos 166 pacientes, foram identificadas 664 PT. Foram classificadas como tópicas e ectópicas 577 (86,4%) e 91(13,6%) glândulas, respectivamente. Oito PT supranumerárias foram encontradas (7 tópicas e 1 ectópica). As localizações mais comuns de PT ectópicas foram as regiões retroesofágica e tímica. Associadas, a USG e a MIBI não identificaram 56 glândulas (61,5%) ectópicas. Entretanto, a MIBI foi positiva para 69,7% daquelas localizadas nas regiões tímicas e mediastinal. Conclusão: A presença de glândulas ectópicas e supranumerárias em pacientes com hiperparatireoidismo associado à DRC é significativa. Os exames de imagem pré-operatórios não localizaram a maioria das glândulas ectópicas. A MIBI pode ter importância na identificação de PT nas regiões tímica e mediastinal. .
Introduction: Hyperparathyroidism is an expected metabolic consequence of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Ectopic and/or supernumerary parathyroid glands (PT) may be the cause of surgical failure in patients undergoing total parathyroidectomy (PTX). Aim: To define the locations of ectopic and supernumerary PT in patients with renal hyperparathyroidism and to correlate intraoperative findings with preoperative tests. Materials and methods: A retrospective study was conducted with 166 patients submitted to PTX. The location of PT during surgery was recorded and classified as eutopic or ectopic. The preoperative localizations of PT found by ultrasonography (USG) and Tc99m-Sestamibi scintigraphy (MIBI) were subsequently compared with intraoperative findings. Results: In the 166 patients studied, 664 PT were found. Five-hundred-seventy-seven (86.4%) glands were classified as eutopic and 91(13.6%) as ectopic. Eight supernumerary PT were found. The most common sites of ectopic PT were in the retroesophageal and thymic regions. Taken together, USG and MIBI did not identify 56 (61.5%) ectopic glands. MIBI was positive for 69,7% of all ectopic glands located in the mediastinal and thymic regions. Conclusion: The presence of ectopic and supernumerary PT in patients with renal hyperparathyroidism is significant. Although preoperative imaging tests did not locate most of ectopic glands, MIBI may be important for identifying ectopic PT in the mediastinal and thymic regions. .

Avaliamos medida de PTH intraoperatório (IO-PTH) no intuito de melhorar índices de sucesso no tratamento cirúrgico do hiperparatiroidismo associado à doença renal. MÉTODO: Oitenta e seis pacientes realizaram paratiroidectomia total com autoimplante em musculatura pré-esternal entre abril de 2000 e outubro de 2009 com 26,5 meses de seguimento em média, prospectivo. Foram divididos em dois grupos: hiperparatiroidismo secundário (HPS) - pacientes em diálise e hiperparatiroidismo terciário (HPT) - transplantados renais. Medido IO-PTH (Elecsys-PTH-Immunoassay/Roche) na indução anestésica (IOPTH-0') e 20 minutos (IOPTH-20') após a retirada das paratireoides. RESULTADOS: 80,2% (69/86) do total de pacientes apresentaram queda de 80% ou mais do IOPTH-20' e todos se curaram. Em 11/86 (12,7%) pacientes, foi observada queda entre 70-79%, sendo que dois (18,1%) deles evoluíram com falha cirúrgica. 6/86 (6,9%) pacientes apresentaram redução de IOPTH-20' menor do que 70%: dois foram curados; três apresentaram paratireoide supranumerária/ectópica que foi localizada e removida; um paciente evoluiu com persistência da doença após término da cirurgia com a retirada de quatro paratireoides. CONCLUSÃO: Queda do IOPTH-20' de 80% ou mais foi preditor de cura em todos os pacientes renais durante o período avaliado. Redução menor que 70% sugere paratireoide hiperfuncionante não reconhecida/supranumerária, sendo preditor de falha cirúrgica em 66.6%. A queda marginal de 70%-79% delega ao cirurgião experiente a decisão de continuar ou não o procedimento cirúrgico.
In order to improve success rates in surgery of renal hyperparathyroidism, we evaluated intraoperative PTH (IOPTH) measurement utility. METHOD: 86 patients underwent total parathyroidectomy with intramuscular presternal autotransplantation from 04/2000 to 10/2009 and were followed for 26.5 months on average (prospective cohort). Patients were divided in secondary (SHPT) and tertiary hyperparathyroidism (THPT). SHPT group was composed by patients under dialysis treatment, THPT group included renal grafted ones. IOPTH (Elecsys-PTH-Immunoassay/Roche) was measured at anesthesia induction (IOPTH-0') and 20 minutes (IOPTH-20') after parathyroidectomy. RESULTS: 80.2% (69/86) presented with 80% decrease or more in the IOPTH-20' and all were cured. In 11/86 patients (12.7%), a lower IOPTH-20' drop (70-79%) was observed, and 2 of them (18.1%) failed to cure. 6/86 (6.9%) patients presented IO-PTH-20' decrease of less than 70%: two were cured, in three a supernumerary/ectopic parathyroid was found and removed, and in one of these six patients, surgery was finished after 4-gland excision and the patient failure to cure. CONCLUSION: IOPTH-20' decrease of 80% or more compared to IOPTH-0' predicts cure in all renal patients throughout follow-up. A decay of less than 70% points to missed or hyperfunctioning supernumerary gland and is predictive of surgical failure in 66.6%. A marginal IOPTH drop of 70-79% leaves the decision whether or not surgery should be continued up to the experienced surgeon.

We hereby report two patients with parathyroid carcinoma presenting extremely high calcium and PTH levels, severe bone disease, and palpable neck mass at diagnosis. They both underwent parathyroidectomy, and one of them evolved to lung metastasis. Important hypocalcemia was observed after surgery in both: after parathyroidectomy in one patient, and only after surgical removal of the metastasis in the other. Both required intravenous calcium replacement, thus revealing hungry bone syndrome (HBS). HBS usually reflects rapid mineralization after correction of hyperparathyroidism. The more severe the bone disease before surgery, the more prone the patient is to HBS after surgery. Despite being an unfavorable outcome, HBS state suggests that surgical removal of hypersecretory parathyroid tissue was accomplished. In this study, HBS was observed in both patients, who presented severe bone disease prior to surgery. HBS would be expected post-operatively in successful parathyroid carcinoma removal.
O presente artigo descreve o relato de dois pacientes com carcinoma de paratiroide que apresentavam valores intensamente elevados de cálcio sérico e de PTH, associado a doença óssea e presença de nódulo cervical palpável ao diagnóstico. Ambos foram submetidos à paratiroidectomia, sendo que um evoluiu com metástases pulmonares. Hipocalcemia importante foi observada após a paratiroidectomia em um paciente e somente após remoção cirúrgica das metástases pulmonares em outro. Ambos necessitaram de reposição endovenosa de cálcio, revelando, assim, o estado de fome óssea (FO). A presença da FO usualmente reflete rápida mineralização óssea após correção do hiperparatiroidismo; assim, quanto mais severa a doença óssea previa à cirurgia, maior será a FO observada no pós-operatório desses pacientes. Embora inicialmente considerada um evento indesejável, a FO representa a bem-sucedida remoção cirúrgica do tecido paratiroideano hipersecretor. Fome óssea deve ser esperada no pós-operatório do tratamento cirúrgico bem-sucedido do carcinoma de paratiroide.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate if the measurement of peri-operative parathyroid hormone (PTH) is able to identify patients with increased risk of developing symptoms of hypocalcemia. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Forty patients who underwent total thyroidectomy were studied prospectively. Ionized serum calcium and PTH were measured after induction of anesthesia, one hour (PTH1) and one day after surgery (PTH24). Patients were evaluated for symptoms of hypocalcemia and treated with calcium and vitamin D supplementation as necessary. RESULTS: Symptomatic hypocalcemia developed in 16 patients. Symptomatic patients had significant lower PTH1 and greater drops in PTH levels. The selection of 12.1 ng/L as PTH1 level cutoff level divided patients with and without symptoms with 93.7% sensitivity and 91.6% specificity. The selection of 73.5% as the cutoff value for PTH decrease resulted in 91.6% sensitivity and 87.5% specificity. CONCLUSION: PTH1 levels and the drop in PTH levels are reliable predictors of developing symptomatic hypocalcemia after total thyroidectomy.
OBJETIVO: O objetivo deste estudo é avaliar se a medida perioperatória do hormônio da paratireoide (PTH) pode identificar os pacientes com maior risco de desenvolver sintomas de hipocalcemia. SUJEITOS E MÉTODOS: Foram estudados quarenta pacientes submetidos à tireodiectomia total. A medida do cálcio sérico e do PTH foi feita após a indução anestésica, uma hora (PTH1) e um dia após a cirurgia. Os pacientes foram avaliados quanto à presença de sintomas de hipocalcemia e tratados com suplementação de cálcio e vitamina D quando necessário. RESULTADOS: Dezesseis pacientes apresentaram sintomas de hipocalcemia. Os pacientes sintomáticos apresentaram PTH1 significantemente menor e queda no PTH significativamente maior. Usando o valor de 12,1 ng/L como corte, conseguimos distinguir pacientes com e sem sintomas de hipocalcemia com sensibilidade de 93,7% e especificidade de 91,6%. Utilizando como corte a queda de 73,5% no valor do PTH, temos sensibilidade de 91,6% e especificidade de 87,5%. CONCLUSÃO: O PTH1 e a queda no PTH são bons preditores de hipocalcemia no pós-operatório de tireoidectomia total.

INTRODUÇÃO: A medida de PTH intra-operatório (PTH-IO) foi inicialmente descrita em 1988, sendo potencialmente útil na definição de sucesso após a paratiroidectomia. OBJETIVOS: Avaliar prospectivamente perfil de decaimento do PTH-IO e sua capacidade de prever sucesso cirúrgico no hiperparatiroidismo primário (HPP) e secundário à insuficiência renal (HPS). PACIENTES E MÉTODOS: 109 pacientes operados entre 06/2000 e 12/2004, sendo 33 HPP, 76 HPS (52 em diálise, 24 transplantados renais). PTH-IO: método imunométrico rápido (Elecsys-PTH/Immunoassay-Roche); tempo para resultado: 10 minutos. Coletas de sangue periférico nos tempos basal, 10 e 20 minutos pós-paratiroidectomia. RESULTADOS: HPP: queda média de PTH de 79,2 por cento aos 10 minutos. HPS: queda média de PTH de 85,8 por cento e 87,6 por cento aos 10 minutos nos pacientes diálise e transplantados respectivamente. A cirurgia foi bem sucedida em todos, exceto em 2 pacientes (1 HPP, 1 HPS). Em ambos não houve queda PTH-IO, sendo constatado adenoma duplo no HPP e paratiróide ectópica no HPS. CONCLUSÃO: Medida PTH-IO fornece resultados confiáveis em tempo rápido, sendo capaz de discriminar persistência da doença se mantidos níveis elevados.
INTRODUCTION: Intraoperative parathyroid hormone measurement (IO-PTH) was first described in 1988 and it's potentially useful in predicting cure after parathyroidectomy. The aim of this study was to evaluate IO-PTH decay profile and the utility of this procedure in predicting cure in primary (PHH) and secondary (SHH) hyperparathyroidism due to renal disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 109 patients were evaluated from 06/2000 to 12/2004. 33 had PHH and 76 SHH (52 in dialysis, 24 with renal graft). IO-PTH was measured at times 0 (before resection), 10, 20 minutes after parathyroidectomy using immunometric assay (Elecsys-PTH/Immunoassay-Roche). Time necessary to perform assay: 10 minutes. RESULTS: HPP patients: IO-PTH average decrease 79.2 percent from basal levels after 10 minutes. HPS: IO-PTH average decrease 85.8 percent and 87.6 percent after 10 minutes in dialysis and renal graft patients respectively. All patients were cured, except 2 (1 PHH, 1 SHH), because of a double adenoma and ectopic (mediastinal) parathyroid respectively. Failure in IO-PTH decrease was observed in both. CONCLUSION: IO-PTH measurement is useful in improving surgical success rates in PHH and SHH.
