ABSTRACT

Objective: To study the diagnosis and treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism.Methods: The clinical data of 8 primary hyperparathyroidism patients(1992 2002) in our hospital were summarized and the references were reviewed.Results: It was found that primary hyperparathyroidism was liable to be misdiagnosed.Information on blood calcium,parathyroid hormone(PTH) and imaging may be helpful for diagnosis. Surgical resection(4 cases), anhydrous alcohol injection (2 cases), electron radiation (1 case) and internal medicine (1 case) were applied. Conclusion:Information on blood calcium,PTH and early imaging is helpful for diagnosis.Operation is the first choice of treatment, and for patients who can not tolerate surgery, anhydrous alcohol injection is an effective and safe treatment.
