Abstract:AimsThis study aims to identify associations between parathyroid adenoma (PTA) characteristics (histology, weight and size) with the change in parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcium levels.MethodsA historical cohort study was conducted on adult patients with solitary PTA removed in the Gold Coast Health Precinct, Australia, between 2017 and 2022.ResultsPTA weight is correlated with the change in day 1 PTH level (r=0.26, p=0.036), the change in day 1 corrected calcium level (r=0.20, p=0.033), and the change in f… Show more
