AI Article Synopsis

  • The study examined how total parathyroidectomy and autotransplantation affect bone structure in patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism.
  • Despite low PTH levels after 12 weeks, low turnover bone disease was observed, indicating that bone resorption still outpaced formation a year post-surgery.
  • Long-term monitoring of bone mineral density is crucial due to these findings, as patients may experience significant decreases in bone density over time.

Article Abstract

Impacts of total parathyroidectomy and autotransplantation on bone histology were evaluated in secondary hyperparathyroidism. Low turnover bone disease accompanied with fibrous tissue developed at 4 weeks after surgery, and osteoclasts disappeared. In addition, fibrous tissue also disappeared at 12 weeks. Even though serum PTH level indicated quite low in some cases, bone resorption exceeded bone formation at 1 years after surgery. So we should pay special attention to the decrease in bone mineral density in the long term in these cases.

Thyroid gland which is responsible for the maintenance of metabolism and growth is derived from thyroglossal duct, an outpocketing of foregut. The microscopic study of thyroid gland during development in first, second and third trimesters has utmost significance to understand the several developmental thyroid disorders metabolically and structurally. This study is descriptive observational study carried in tissue sections taken from thyroid gland of still birth and spontaneously aborted human fetuses of first, second and third trimester.

The proliferation of recognized neoplasms related to related to rearrangements involving kinase genes, arising in diverse somatic tissue lineages, poses an increasing challenge in surgical pathology. For instance, ALK rearrangements have been observed in diverse neoplasms of epithelial, connective tissue, and hematolymphoid lineages, many of which are associated with overexpression of ALK by immunohistochemistry as a useful biomarker. An even higher order challenge and pitfall would be the scenario where a tumor an ALK rearrangement nonetheless overexpresses the protein, thereby simulating an ALK-defined neoplasm.
