“…Generally, remnant-conserving techniques are associated with good clinical outcome and functional improvement [6,[19][20][21]. Regardless of the surgical procedure we noted a rapid improvement of clinical symptoms after both types of parathyroidectomies, mainly those that concerned bone pains, pruritus, and muscle weakness.…”

“…The third technique, total parathyroidectomy without autotransplantation (tPtx), was initially severely criticised mainly for the long-term hypoparathyroidism induced and its consequences on bone metabolism [13]. Recent papers, however, have revived tPtx as a trustworthy technique with comparable results in short-and medium-term follow-up [6,14,15].…”

“…However, several serum bone markers are more conveniently used to measure changes in bone turnover (Malluche et al 2011). None of our patients had biochemical hypoparathyroidism, which was defined as iPTH levels < 20 pg/ml (Puccini et al 2010) at long-term follow up. However, we could not exclude the possibility of low turnover bone disease because the mean serum intact PTH of our sample was 48.1 ± 19.5 pg/ml 1 year after PTX (Goodman et al 1994;Yajima et al 2001).…”

“…The most frequent pathology diagnosis in our series was nodular hyperplasia, a pattern which is considered to be involved in a higher disease recurrence rate (34,35); the short/medium time follow-up period did not allow us to draw any conclusion regarding this issue. Among our patients four (13.79%) were found to have unexpected thyroid pathology at the time of PTx, including two with differentiated thyroid carcinoma.…”
