ABSTRACT
El hiperparatiroidismo primario (HPTP) es la principal causa de hipercalcemia en pacientes no hospitalizados, estando causado en el 85-90% de los casos por un adenoma solitario. La cirugía radioguiada de paratiroides (CRGP), como técnica GOSTT (Guided intraOperative Scintigraphic Tumor Targeting), utiliza la SPECT-TC con 99mTc-MIBI como técnica de elección. La PET-TC con 18F-Colina (18FCH) puede emplearse en pacientes con 99mTc-MIBI negativo, obteniéndose sensibilidades próximas al 95%. El uso de la 18FCH en la CRGP es muy complejo recomendándose la utilización de otros trazadores como los 99mTc-Macroagregados (99mTc-MAA) o las semillas de Yodo-125 (125I-Semilla). La CRGP disminuye el tiempo quirúrgico, los costes hospitalarios y la morbilidad sobre el paciente, con una elevada efectividad y eficiencia. (AU)
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is the main cause of hypercalcemia in non-hospitalized patients, being caused in 85-90% of cases by a solitary adenoma. Radioguided parathyroid surgery (RGPS), as a GOSTT (Guided intraOperative Scintigraphic Tumor Targeting) technique, uses SPECT-TC with 99mTc -MIBI as the technique of choice. PET-TC with 18F-Choline (18FCH) can be used in patients with negative 99mTc-MIBI, obtaining sensitivities close to 95%. The use of 18FCH in CRGP is very complex, recommending the use of other tracers such as 99mTc-Macroaggregates (99mTc-MAA) or Iodine-125 seeds (125I-Seed). RGPS reduces surgical time, hospital costs and patient morbidity, with high effectiveness and efficiency. (AU)

El hiperparatiroidismo primario es la principal causa de hipercalcemia en pacientes no hospitalizados, estando causado en el 85-90 % de los casos por un adenoma solitario. La cirugía radioguiada (CRG) es una técnica quirúrgica mínimamente invasiva que emplea medicamentos radiofármacos para facilitar la localización y extirpación de lesiones benignas o malignas. La cirugía radioguiada de paratiroides (CRGP), como técnica GOSTT (Guided intraOperative Scintigraphic Tumor Targeting) y mínimamente invasiva, precisa de una prueba de diagnóstico por la imagen que permita localizar anatómicamente la lesión y establecer su comportamiento funcional. El MIBI-99mTc es el trazador de elección, debiendo siempre incluir estudios tomográficos, especialmente la SPECT-CT. Se emplea durante la CRGP junto con sondas intraoperatorias, gammacámaras y dispositivos SPECT portátiles, herramientas de navegación y sistemas robóticos laparoscópicos. La CRGP disminuye el tiempo quirúrgico, los costes hospitalarios y la morbilidad sobre el paciente, con una elevada efectividad y eficiencia
Primary hyperparathyroidism is the main cause of hypercalcemia in outpatients. It is caused in 85-90 % of cases by a solitary adenoma. Radioguided surgery (RGS) is a minimally invasive surgical technique that uses radiopharmaceutical drugs to facilitate the location and removal of benign or malignant lesions. Radioguided parathyroid surgery (RGPS), as a GOSTT (Guided intraOperative Scintigraphic Tumor Targeting) technique and minimally invasive, requires a diagnostic imaging test to anatomically locate the lesion and establish its functional behavior. The MIBI-99mTc is the tracer of choice, and should always include tomographic studies, especially the SPECT-CT. This radiotracer is used during the RGPS together with intraoperative probes, gammacameras and portable SPECT devices, navigation tools and laparoscopic robotic systems. The RGPS reduces surgical time, hospital costs and patient morbidity with high effectiveness and efficiency

We report a 65-year-old man with a right cerebral infarction that occurred 15 years ago and a residual left hemiparesis that began with progressive contralateral hemiparesis. During the hospitalization, the patient developed a bilateral alien hand syndrome. Urgent CT, MR, CT angiography, and brain perfusion SPECT were performed that revealed an old right cerebral infarction and a new ischemic lesion in left parietal lobe and adjacent brain territories.

Tumour thrombosis of the inferior cava vein is usually associated with primary renal cell cancer. To our knowledge, this is the first case reported of adrenal metastasis of breast cancer extending into the inferior vena cava. There are few references in the literature documenting this extension with positron emission tomography (PET) and enhanced computed tomography (CT). The authors focus on the role of combined PET-CT imaging in the accurate detection of malignant thrombus.
