Almost always, primary hyperparathyroidism is due to a benign overgrowth of parathyroid tissue either as a single gland (80% of cases) or as a multiple gland ...

Hyperparathyroidism

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1991
Since the introduction of routine automated measurements of serum calcium levels in the 1970s, the detection of primary hyperparathyroidism has risen considerably. Nevertheless, the severe bone changes described by von Recklinghausen are still quite rare. The apparent rise in incidence is accounted for by the discovery of a large group of predominantly

Usefulness of 18F-Fluorocholine Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography in Locating Lesions in Hyperparathyroidism: A Systematic Review.

JAMA Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2019
Importance Identifying parathyroid glands correctly before a surgical procedure is essential to perform minimally invasive surgery. First-line tests with discordant or negative results underscore the need for more accurate imaging tests, thus decreasing ...
