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.

Pitfalls of DualTracer 99m-Technetium (Tc) Pertechnetate and Sestamibi Scintigraphy before Parathyroidectomy: Between Primary-Hyperparathyroidism-Associated Parathyroid Tumour and Ectopic Thyroid Tissue

Medicina, 2023
Diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHP) is based on blood assessments in terms of synchronous high calcium and PTH (parathormone), but further management, particularly parathyroid surgery that provides the disease cure in 95–99% of cases, requires

Wild Type Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy Hidden Under Ablation-Refractory Atrial Arrhythmias and the Potential Contribution of Tafamidis in Rhythm Control. [PDF]

J Arrhythm
An octogenarian man with a history of multiple catheter ablation failures for atrial fibrillation and tachycardia was diagnosed with transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy. After 1 year of tafamidis therapy, the patient experienced spontaneous restoration of sinus rhythm, and follow‐up image of 99mTc‐pyrophosphate scintigraphy revealed a marked decrease ...
