Effect of different surgical procedures of parathyroidectomy on secondary hyperparathyroidism: a meta-analysis / 中华肾脏病杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To evaluate the effect of total parathyroidectomy and autotransplantation (TPTX+AT) and total parathyroidectomy (TPTX) on secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT).@*Methods@#PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane library were searched from inception to June 2017 for relative studies, which were screened according to inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis of included study were conducted to compare the improvement of symptoms, persistent SHPT, recurrent SHPT, reoperation, hypoparathyroidism, duration of operation and hospitalization between TPTX+AT group and TPTX group.@*Results@#A total of 11 studies with 1212 patients were included. Results of meta-analyses showed no difference between TPTX+AT and TPTX regarding improvement of symptoms and persistent SHPT (RR=1.03, P=0.70; RR=0.81, P=0.67, respectively), but TPTX was associated with lower risks of recurrent SHPT and reoperation (RR=0.25, P<0.01; RR=0.19, P<0.01). Patients with TPTX had higher rate of hypoparathyroidism (RR=2.68, P<0.01) but shorter time of operation (MD=-17.3, P=0.01). Durations of hospitalization were similar between the two groups (MD=-0.06, P=0.98).@*Conclusion@#Compared with TPTX+AT, TPTX reduces the risks of recurrent SHPT, reoperation and operation time, but has higher risk of hypoparathyroidism.
