Simple parathyroid adenomectomy through minimal incision for primary hyperparathyroidism caused by single adenoma / 中国普通外科杂志

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo evaluate the result of direct parathyroid adenomectomy for the treatment of hyperparathyroidism caused by single parathyroid adenoma. MethodsClinical data of 13 cases were retrospectively analyzed from 1993 to 2000. Preoperative Bus, CT, 99mTc-MIBI localization was suggestive of a single adenoma and direct parathyroid adenomectomy through minimal incision was performed.ResultsHyperparathyroidism was cured in all cases. One case underwent second operation in which the pathology found malignancy, making the success rate of simple adenomectomy of 92.3%.Conclusions Simple parathyroid adenomectomy for primary hyper parathyroidism caused by single adenoma is effective?safe alternative to conventional neck exploration should preoperative diagnostic measures verify a single adenoma as the etiology of hyperparathyroidism.
