PARATHYROID GLAND, ANATOM, HISTOLOGY, AND PHYSIOLOGY (A SHORT REVIEW) [PDF]
Basrah Journal of Veterinary Research, 2020 Parathyroid glands take a special place in human physiology and anatomy,as they were the last major organs to be identified in humans. The average parathyroid glandmeasures about five to seven mm in length, andthree to four mm in width and weighs about ...

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.
