[Corticotropin-producing pheochromocytoma in multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1].

A clinical case of a man 66 y.o. who was diagnosed with hormone-inactive pituitary macroadenoma complicated by corneal erosion and partial atrophy of the optic nerve of the left eye due to exophthalmos.

[Role of preoperative visualization in the choice of surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism].

Background: Precise localization of abnormal parathyroid glands is important for a successful surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). While a large number of patients can be successfully treated with the focused parathyroidectomy, there is a considerable rate of the persistent PHPT mostly because of undetected multiglandular disease (MGD).

Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the meaning of preoperative visualization data for planning the surgery for patients with PHPT.

Persistence of primary hyperparathyroidism: a single-center experience.

Background: Parathyroidectomy is the only definitive treatment for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Precise localization of abnormal glands is a key to a successful surgery. Most patients are expected to be successfully treated with focused parathyroidectomy.
