Preservation of parathyroid glands during thyroid and neck surgery
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023 The parathyroid glands are situated in close proximity to the thyroid gland. They have an important endocrine function maintaining calcium and phosphate homeostasis in the body by the secretion of parathormone (PTH), which is responsible for this ...

Total Parathyroidectomy with Subcutaneous Parathyroid Forearm Autotransplantation in the Treatment of Secondary Hyperparathyroidism: A Single-Center Experience. [PDF]
, 2018 Introduction Secondary hyperparathyroidism is common in chronic kidney disease. Parathyroidectomy is indicated in refractory hyperparathyroidism when medical treatments and so the parathyroid hormone levels cannot be lowered to acceptable values without

Primary Hyperparathyroidism due to Parathyroid Adenoma Originated from Supernumerary Gland
Case Reports in Otolaryngology, 2018 Introduction. The variability of the location of the parathyroid glands is directly related to the events that occur during embryonic development. The impact that an individual submits more than four parathyroid glands is close to 13%.

The EANM practice guidelines for parathyroid imaging
European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, 2021 Nuclear medicine parathyroid imaging is important in the identification of hyperfunctioning parathyroid glands in primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT), but it may be also valuable before surgical treatment in secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT ...

The calcium-sensing receptor as a regulator of cellular fate in normal and pathological conditions [PDF]
, 2013 The calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) belongs to the evolutionarily conserved family of plasma membrane G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Early studies identified an essential role for the CaSR in systemic calcium homeostasis through its ability to ...

A mathematical model of parathyroid gland biology
Physiological Reports, 2019 Altered parathyroid gland biology in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major contributor to chronic kidney disease‐mineral bone disorder (CKD‐MBD). This disorder is associated with an increased risk of bone disorders, vascular calcification,

Cryopreservation of Parathyroid Glands [PDF]
International Journal of Endocrinology, 2010 The risk of permanent hypoparathyroidism following thyroid and parathyroid surgery is around 1% in the hands of experienced endocrine surgeons. Although this complication is rare, rendering a patient permanently aparathyroid has significant consequences on the health and quality of life of the patient.
