“…A drop in PTH levels to "normal" values is delayed until 30 minutes after total parathyroidectomy; however, a rapid PTH assay 10 minutes after removal of the last parathyroid gland seems as accurate as an assay performed at 30 minutes thereafter. Intraoperative PTH monitoring demonstrates relevant decreases in rapid PTH levels after total parathyroid removal similar to those previously reported in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism [19]. Our results confi rm this fi nding and encourage the use of iPTH as an assessment of complete parathyroid removal in secondary renal hyperparathyroidism.…”

“…Several studies report that a significant reduction in IOPTH levels compared to preoperative levels is highly predictive of postoperative success. Additionally, IOPTH is regarded by some as a valuable tool in intraoperative decision-making and to discern patients with both supernumerary, ectopic and fewer than four parathyroid glands removed [25,[80][81][82][83] (EL 1b-3). In sharp contrast, other authors consider IOPTH of no or limited practical utility.…”

“…As in PHP, the intraoperative determination of intact PTH may be useful in surgery of patients with chronic renal failure and hyperparathyroidism, suggesting missed or hyperfunctioning supernumerary glands, when levels fail to decrease after parathyroid tissue removal (19). The aim of the present study was to observe retrospectively the decay profile of intact PTH in patients undergoing parathyroidectomy for PHP, refratory SHP or THP and to compare it to the cure observed in postoperative follow-up, in order to assess the utility of this procedure in predicting cure.…”
