Rationale for Pre-op
Imaging in Primary Hyper-PTH
 Identify ectopic and supernumerary glands
 Identify multiple adenomas
 Provide pre-op anatomic confirmation of biochemical Dx
 Reduce incidence of persistent/recurrent hyper-para
 Permit “limited exploration”
 Reduce complication risk
“The only pre-op localization necessary is to
locate an experienced neck surgeon”

Hyperparathyroidism
Evolution of Imaging Relevence
 Improvement in imaging technology
 Popularity of limited exploration
 Development of rapid PTH Assay
 Economic pressures
Jim Norman (based on the past 15,000 PTH operations):
“Our patients get the exact same operation
regardless of scan findings – we simply do not
care if their scans are positive or negative”

Parathyroidectomy; JACS Mar 2012 ; 214(3) : 260-269

CURRENT CONTROVERSIES:
“SPORADIC” PRIMARY HYPERPARA
“Limited Exploration” vs. Complete Exploration
Pre-op Imaging
Intra-op PTH Assay
Evolving Approaches:
Minimally invasive / Robotic
Regional Anesthesia
Ambulatory/Outpatient
SECONDARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM
Appropriate  PTH level (Nutritional or Renal).
Renal Failure:
Numerous influences on Ca homeostasis
High proportion of Dialysis pts have elevated PTH.
Less than ten percent should require surgical Rx.
Effects of Renal Failure on PTH
Homeostasis
 Diminished renal hydroxylation of D3
 Decreased GI absorption of Calcium
 Decreased suppression of PTH by D3
 Decreased (total) serum Calcium
 Decreased renal excretion of phosphorus
 Direct effect of Hyperphosphatemia
 Decreased ionized Calcium
 Elevated “set point” of PTH responsiveness
 Osteoblast resistance to PTH
 Autonomous Hypersecretion from Hyperplasia

PTH Levels in Secondary Hyperparathyroidism
The majority of
dialysis patients have
some elevation in PTH.
A level in the 100- 300
pg/ml range is common.
Elevated level alone
is not an indication
for surgical Rx.
SECONDARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM
Indications for Surgery
 Failure of reliable maximal medical Rx.
 Development of significant symptoms: Musculoskeletal, pruritis, calcinosis cutis, neuro-psych.
 Calcium x Phosphorus product above 70.
 Osteopenia, decreasing measured bone density,
bone biopsy.
 Development of Tertiary Hyper-PTH
SECONDARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM
PRE-OP EVALUATION
 General condition - operative risk.
 Virtually all are dialysis-dependant
 Alk Phos
 Ultrasound (optional); Sestamibi scan not helpful.
Neck Exploration
Identification of all Parathyroid Glands
SECONDARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM
Surgical Options
Subtotal Parathyroidectomy
or
Total Parathyroidectomy with PTH Autotransplant
Essential Components of Either Procedure:
•
Complete Neck Exploration
•
Identification of All PTH’s
•
Ablation of Hyperplastic Glands
•
Leave 40-70 mg Functioning PTH
•
Consider temporary central line
SURGERY:
FAMILIAL PRIMARY (MEN)
SECONDARY AND TERTIARY

Subtotal (3 ½ gland) resection

Total Parathyroidectomy with Autotransplant.
Special Considerations

MEN I Syndrome
 Calcinosis/Calciphylaxis
 Tertiary after transplant
Subtotal PTH-x vs Total PTH-x with AutoTx
Long – term Recurrence of Secondary Hyper PTH
Patient Compliance
Complexity and Duration of Surgery
Ease / Cost of Post-op Care
Calcinosis – special situation
