Purpose: Selective parathyroidectomy, the treatment of choice for primary hyperparathyroidism, requires precise preoperative localization. Our purpose was to compare the accuracy and concordance of pre-surgical MIBI parathyroid scintigraphy and ultrasonography, as well as to assess the relevance of hybrid acquisition (SPECT/CT) in compromised circumstances: low-weight or ectopic adenomas, coexisting thyroid disease and re-interventions.
Methods: The study included 223 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism operated in a single Surgical Unit from August 2016 to March 2021.
