ABSTRACT
Minimal surgical techniques are increasingly used to remove parathyroid adenomas. Such surgery depends on accurate preoperative localization of the parathyroid swelling. The preoperative accuracy of Tc-99m tetrofosmin was evaluated in 45 patients presented with primary hyperparathyroidism and compared with ultrasonography and Tc-99m pertechnetate studies / Thallium-201 [Tc-O[4]/TL-20I] subtraction. The overall sensitivity of Tc-99m tetrofosmin was 88.8% for double phase study and 91.1% for dual tracer subtraction and that for Tc-99mO[4]/TL-201 subtraction was 80% and US was 73.3% with high significant difference. High reliability and accuracy of Tc-99m tetrofosmin in pre-operative localization of parathyroid adenoma
