Mediastinal parathyroidectomy by VATS for persistent, sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism in an adolescent

Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2023
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is an endocrine disorder that is commonly diagnosed in adults. PHPT is less commonly seen in the pediatric age range, and when identified, non-syndromic disease is unusual. PHPT caused by an ectopic parathyroid gland is

Video‐assisted thoracoscopic surgery for ectopic mediastinal parathyroid adenoma

BJS Open, 2019
Background Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), caused by an ectopic mediastinal parathyroid adenoma, is uncommon. In the past, when the adenoma was not accessible from the neck, median sternotomy was advocated for safe and successful parathyroidectomy ...

Vitamin D Pretreatment to Prevent the Risk of Postoperative Hypocalcemic Complications After Parathyroidectomy in Primary Hyperparathyroidism: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Head &Neck, Volume 48, Issue 7, Page 1865-1875, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Parathyroidectomy is the treatment for primary hyperparathyroidism, yet postoperative hypocalcemia and hungry bone syndrome remain common. Vitamin D deficiency has been suggested as a modifiable risk factor, but evidence supporting preoperative supplementation is inconsistent.

From Expectations to Experience: A Comparison of Program Director Priorities to Resident Case Logs

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 7, Page 2954-2962, July 2026.
The present study identified 47 essential otolaryngology procedures via program director surveys and evaluated the extent of resident participation in these cases through ACGME case logs. Results revealed significant variability in surgical experience, with nearly half of these essential procedures being logged fewer than 10 times during residency ...

Upacicalcet: A Novel Intravenous Calcimimetic Agent for Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis With Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, Volume 30, Issue 3, Page 309-322, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication in patients receiving maintenance dialysis, driven by calcium and phosphate metabolism disturbances. Calcimimetics are central to the management of SHPT by enhancing calcium‐sensing receptor sensitivity and reducing parathyroid hormone secretion.

Intact parathyroid hormone levels localize causative glands in persistent or recurrent renal hyperparathyroidism: A retrospective cohort study.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Persistent or recurrent renal hyperparathyroidism may occur after total parathyroidectomy and transcervical thymectomy with forearm autograft under continuous stimulation due to uremia. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels may reflect persistent or recurrent
