The Parathyroid Gland

2014
Ultrasound (US) evaluation of the parathyroid glands is indicated in patients with borderline or elevated serum calcium levels to look for parathyroid adenoma or hyperplasia. Once the lesion is identified, a USG-FNA is performed for cytology evaluation and measurement of parathormone levels in needle rinses. This chapter covers cytologic and histologic

Cryosurgery of parathyroid glands

Cryobiology, 1974
Abstract The effectiveness of cryosurgery in destruction of parathyroid glands in rats was studied by comparison of 4 experimental groups: 1. cryosurgery utilizing 3 patterns of repetitive freezing, 2. excision, 3. sham operation, or 4. no treatment. Evaluation included clinical observation of respirations and voice, serum calcium concentration, and ...

Parathyroids: The Forgotten Glands

Neonatal Network, 2000
Symptomatic calcium disorders—most notably, hypocalcemia— are common problems in preterm and certain term infants. Many factors predispose susceptible neonates to hypo- or hypercalcemia, but in many cases, the root of the problem is altered function of the parathyroid glands.

Imaging of the Parathyroid Glands

Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2012
Parathyroid imaging is performed in the setting of primary hyperparathyroidism with intent to localize adenomatous parathyroid tissue before minimally invasive surgery. Available imaging options currently consist of ultrasound, radionuclide scanning, magnetic resonance imaging, and both conventional and "4 D" computed tomography.

Pathology of the parathyroid glands in hyperparathyroidism.

Seminars in diagnostic pathology, 2013
This paper reviews the embryology, histology and pathology of the human parathyroid glands. It emphasizes those pathologic lesions which are found in the setting of clinical hyperparathyroidism.

Parathyroid Gland Metabolism

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1969
The parathyroids differ from other endocrine glands in several respects. (1) The parathyroids appear late in phylogeny, being seen first in the amphibia. (2) While most endocrine glands make more than one hormone, only one hormone and one secretory cell type are regularly found in the parathyroids.

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.
