Parathyroid Cancer

Endocrine Practice, 2011
To review the current knowledge pertaining to the etiology, molecular pathogenesis, and management of parathyroid carcinoma, a rare presentation of primary hyperparathyroidism.The existing MEDLINE English-language literature was reviewed using the search terms "parathyroid" and "carcinoma" or "cancer."Parathyroid cancer is a rare endocrine tumor ...

The “parathyroid blush” in the identification of parathyroid glands

The American Journal of Surgery, 1974
Abstract When part of a parathyroid gland is excised for biopsy, the cut surface remaining becomes diffusely red from microscopic bleeding in one to three seconds, the “parathyroid blush.” By this simple observation the surgeon can distinguish grossly similar structures such as lobular fat from parathyroid tissue.

PARATHYROID ADENOMA AND HYPERTROPHY OF THE PARATHYROID GLANDS

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1946
The clinical recognition of hyperparathyroidism depends on interpretation of its protean manifestations. These have been divided into (1) those symptoms resulting from chemical alterations in the blood, (2) those symptoms resulting from involvement of the urinary tract and (3) those symptoms resulting from involvement of the skeleton.

Parathyroid transplantation

World Journal of Surgery, 1977
AbstractThis is a review of our current experience with the technique of parathyroid transplantation in man. We have performed 68 autografts and 2 allografts. The indications for parathyroid autotransplantation include primary and secondary parathyroid hyperplasia, repeat neck exploration for persistent or recurrent hyperparathyroidism, and total ...

PET and Parathyroid

PET Clinics, 2007
In parathyroid disease, classical scintigraphic techniques remain the first choice for localizing hyperfunctional parathyroid glands in primary known hyperparathyroidism and in case of secondary, tertiary, and recurrent hyperparathyroidism. When classical scintigraphic techniques are not diagnostic, however, (11)C-methionine seems to offer a good ...

Parathyroid surgery

British Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2009
Prolonged exposure to raised parathyroid hormone and serum calcium can lead to a multitude of systemic symptoms (Table 1). It is important to consider hyperparathyroidism in the differential diagnosis of patents with hypercalcaemia. Parathyroid surgery can cure patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and lead to prolonged life expectancy. Surgery can

Parathyroid Hormone and Parathyroid hormone-Related Protein

The Biomedical & Life Sciences Collection, 2001
Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on current understanding of the physiology and mechanism of action of these polypeptides. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and PTH-related protein (PTHrP) are major factors that regulate skeletal physiology and mineral homeostasis.

Parathyroid Autotransplantation

Archives of Surgery, 1992
Although rare following initial cervical exploration, reoperative parathyroid surgery may cause permanent hypoparathyroidism in 15% to 30% of patients. Immediate fresh or delayed cryopreserved parathyroid autotransplantation is the principal surgical option to resolve this complication.

Magnesium and the parathyroid

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2002
The serum levels of parathyroid hormone and magnesium depend on each other in a complex manner. The secretion of parathyroid hormone by the parathyroid is physiologically controlled by the serum calcium level, but magnesium can exert similar effects. While low levels of magnesium stimulate parathyroid hormone secretion, very low serum concentrations ...

THYROIDECTOMY AND THE PARATHYROIDS

Archives of Surgery, 1948
THE RECOGNITION of the parathyroid glands is a challenge to the surgeon. Although the dire consequences of injury to the glands or of removal of the glands are generally appreciated, it is safe to say that thyroidectomies are done without the operator's being able definitely to recognize this tissue.
