Evaluation of structural and ultrastructural changes in thyroid and parathyroid glands after near infrared irradiation: study on an animal model [PDF]

PeerJ, 2021
Intraoperative identification of parathyroid glands is a tough task for surgeons performing thyroid or parathyroid surgery, because the small size, color and shape of these glands hinder their discrimination from other cervical tissues.

Intraoperative Indocyanine Green (ICG) Angiography for the Identification of the Parathyroid Glands: Current Evidence and Future Perspectives

In Vivo, 2019
Background/Aim: Recently, indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging has been used for the identification of the parathyroid glands (PG) during thyroid and parathyroid surgery.

Parathyroid Glands in Reptiles [PDF]

American Zoologist, 1967
The parathyroid glands in reptiles generally develop from the third and fourth pharyngeal pouches. In lizards and crocodiles, usually only one pair of glands (from the third pouch) persists, while turtles and snakes generally retain both pairs of glands in adults.

18F-Fluorocholine PET/CT in Primary Hyperparathyroidism: Superior Diagnostic Performance to Conventional Scintigraphic Imaging for Localization of Hyperfunctioning Parathyroid Glands

Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2019
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a common endocrine disorder, definitive treatment usually requiring surgical removal of the offending parathyroid glands.

Indocyanine green angiography-guided thyroidectomy versus conventional thyroidectomy for preserving parathyroid function: study protocol for a randomized single-blind controlled trial

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
IntroductionAngiography with indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence performed before thyroidectomy would allow identification of the vascularization of parathyroid glands, maximizing efforts for preserving functioning glands intraoperatively. The rationale

Experience of application the 99mTc-MIBI scintigraphy for preoperative visualization of parathyroid glands in patients with gyperparathyrosis

Acta Medica Leopoliensia, 2019
Aim. The aim of our study was to explore the possibilities of scintigraphy with 99mTc-MIBI for diagnosis of parathyroid glands disorders and advantages of SPECT/CT technology with 99mTc-MIBI for ectopic glands. Material and Methods. The study involved

Pre-operative Localisation of the Parathyroid Glands in Secondary Hyperparathyroidism: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Scientific Reports, 2019
Complete parathyroidectomy (PTx) is essential during total PTx for secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) to prevent recurrent and persistent hyperparathyroidism.

Preoperative and Intraoperative Methods of Parathyroid Gland Localization and the Diagnosis of Parathyroid Adenomas

Molecules, 2020
Accurate pre-operative determination of parathyroid glands localization is critical in the selection of minimally invasive parathyroidectomy as a surgical treatment approach in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT).

The relationship between total mass and blood supply of parathyroid glands and their secretion of parathyroid hormone in hemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism

Saudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2016
Characteristics of parathyroid glands usually determined by ultrasonography such as its total weight or volume might be a good indicator for the induction or suppression of parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion from these glands.

Persistent secondary hyperparathyroidism caused by parathyromatosis and supernumerary parathyroid glands in a patient on haemodialysis

BMC Nephrology, 2020
Background Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common high-risk factor for mortality in end-stage renal disease, and parathyromatosis and supernumerary parathyroid glands are very rare causes of persistent SHPT.
