Postoperative pneumothorax after thyroid or parathyroid surgery is uncommon but linked with significantly increased mortality and complications, underscoring the need for vigilance and prompt management.
This study assesses how often parathyroidectomy yields clinically meaningful improvements in bone mineral density, with or without adjuvant bisphosphonate treatment in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism.
This population-wide study demonstrates that parathyroidectomy in primary hyperparathyroidism reduces major adverse cardiovascular events risk, particularly in patients with higher serum calcium levels.
A nationwide cohort study reveals that two-thirds of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism exhibit end-organ damage at diagnosis or during follow-up, yet few receive parathyroidectomy, underscoring missed opportunities to reduce morbidi
Adding cervical thymectomy to parathyroidectomy in MEN1 patients was associated with higher cure rates and no permanent increase in hypoparathyroidism, supporting its routine use.
Near-infrared autofluorescence heterogeneity measurement provides a real-time, quantitative tool during parathyroidectomy to distinguish hyperfunctional parathyroid glands from normal tissue, aiding surgical precision and potentially improv
A landmark population-based study spanning 2006-2020 in Stockholm, Sweden, reveals that biochemically confirmed primary hyperparathyroidism incidence increased by 52% while only half of affected patients received clinical diagnosis, highlig
Surgical treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism in postmenopausal women significantly improves muscle strength, volume, and metabolic pathways linked to exercise, without increased physical activity.
