European multicentre study on outcome of surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism
BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020 Some 5861 patients undergoing first‐time surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism were registered in the Eurocrine® database between 2015 and 2018. The use of intraoperative parathyroid hormone measurement decreased the risk of conversion and persistent hypercalcaemia.
