Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Persistent elevation of serum parathyroid hormone (PTH), despite normocalcemia, occurs in 8% to 40% of patients after parathyroidectomy. Explanations have included hypocalcemia owing to vitamin D deficiency or bone remineralization, and persistent hyperparathyroidism. METHODS:A retrospective chart review of 816 consecutive patients who underwent surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism was conducted. RESULTS:One hundred fourteen patients (15%) had persistently elevated PTH levels (PPTH). Patients with PPTH had higher preoperative PTH levels than those with normal PTH levels postoperatively. They also had lower postoperative Ca(++) and vitamin D levels. Multiple gland enlargement was identified in fewer patients with PPTH than in those with normal postoperative PTH levels. In patients with PPTH and a postoperative Ca(++) less than 9.6 mg/dL (group I), there was a greater decrease in IOPTH, a higher initial postoperative PTH level, and a lower postoperative vitamin D level than in PPTH patients whose postoperative Ca(++) was > or =9.6 mg/dL (group II). Postoperative Ca(++) and vitamin D levels were also lower in patients whose PPTH did not ultimately resolve. Three patients in group II had recurrent disease. CONCLUSIONS:Persistent elevation of postoperative serum PTH levels in normocalcemic patients is associated with mild hypocalcemia, probably owing to vitamin D deficiency. In some patients it may also be indicative of mild persistent hyperparathyroidism.

SURGERY文献大全abstract:BACKGROUND:Parathyroidectomy has a success rate of greater than 95% in the hands of experienced surgeons. To maintain this result in a more cost-effective way, intraoperative monitoring of intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) has been used to decrease operative times. This technique signals when all hyperfunctioning tissu...
