Dual‐isotope subtraction scintigraphy and SPECT‐CT for preoperative localization of parathyroid adenomas

open access: yesClinical Physiology and Functional Imaging, Volume 46, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abstract Context Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is often caused by a parathyroid adenoma (PTA). Subtraction scintigraphy with 123I and 99mTc –MIBI SPECT‐CT, and neck ultrasound examination as a hybrid scan (HS) can be used to localize the PTA in order to promote minimally invasive surgery.

Predictive factors for postoperative severe hypocalcaemia after parathyroidectomy for primary hyperparathyroidism. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Hypocalcaemia is a complication of parathyroidectomy. We retrospectively analyzed data on patients who underwent parathyroidectomy for primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) to identify predictive factors for severe postoperative hypocalcaemia. Since 2004 we

Hamman's crunch—A pathognomonic sign of pneumomediastinum

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 9, Page e571-e576, September 2026.
Summary Pneumomediastinum, particularly spontaneous pneumomediastinum, is uncommon and presents a diagnostic challenge. In human medicine, auscultation of Hamman's crunch, a crepitant, crunching noise, audible over the cardiac region in synchrony with the heartbeat, is considered pathognomonic for pneumomediastinum.

When to consider an inborn error of immunity: clues for physicians

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, Volume 56, Issue 9, Page 1488-1499, September 2026.
Abstract The term inborn errors of immunity (IEIs) refers to the rapidly expanding group of genetic disorders causing dysregulation of the immune system. With improved genetic testing in recent years, the number of defined IEIs and their range of phenotypic presentations has grown vastly, with more than 550 IEIs now described.
