Intraoperative Parathormone Monitoring Mitigates Age-Related Variability in Targeted Parathyroidectomy for Patients with Primary Hyperparathyroidism

Abstract: Age can significantly affect the accuracy and sensitivity of MIBI and SUS in targeted PTX for patients with pHPT. Across all age groups, IPM remains more accurate than preoperative localization studies. For the elderly, in whom multiglandular disease appears increased, surgeons should have a lower threshold for conversion to bilateral neck exploration.

“…Indeed, the Miami criterion has been shown to mitigate the age-related challenges of preoperative diagnosis uncertainty with comparable cure rates between the extremes of age groups. 23 Biochemical profile also had an independently significant effect on IOPTH in our analysis. PHPT has classically been diagnosed with the concurrent elevations of PTH and calcium.…”
