Aim: Total parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation (TPTX + AT) and subtotal parathyroidectomy (SPTX) have been recommended to patients with renal hyperparathyroidism (RHPT).But which one is the best surgical method remains controversial. The aim of the present study was to compare the two surgical procedures with respect to long-term outcomes.
Methods: A literature search was undertaken using Medline, EMBASE, CNKI and CBM from inception to May 2015. Study quality was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Data were analyzed using Review Manager version 5.1.0.
Results: A total of 13 studies comprising 1589 patients with renal failure were identified. There was no statistically significant difference in the rate of symptomatic improvement (OR 0.77; 95%CI 0.22 to 2.69; P = 0.68), radiological success (OR 0.17; 95%CI 0.02 to 1.56; P = 0.90), hyperparathyroidism recurrence or persistence (OR 1.31; 95%CI 0.65 to 2.65; P = 0.45) and reoperation (OR 1.55; 95%CI 0.62 to 3.86; P = 0.35) between TPTX + AT and SPTX. The effects on serum calcium and parathyroid hormone (PTH) were similar between two surgical protocols.
Conclusion: Both the TPTX + AT and SPTX were effective in treating RHPT and preventing recurrence. The difference between the two surgeries in recurrence or persistence and reoperation rate was insignificant. Further prospective, randomized controlled trials with high statistic power are necessary to comparative the two surgeries on the long term safety.

: Parathyroidectomy (PTX) is generally curative in renal hyperparathyroidism (RHPT) that is refractory to medical treatment in end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients. Severe hypocalcemia is a common complication of PTX and results in increased monitoring, interventions, lengths of stay, and costs of care. This study aimed to find the determinants and cutoff values of the biochemical determinants, if any, for severe post-operative hypocalcemia after PTX in adult patients with ESKD.

Objectives: Neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT) is a rare condition characterized by inactivating mutations in the calcium-sensing receptor () gene, leading to significant hypercalcemia and related complications.
Case Presentation: We present a case of a six-day-old male infant with weakness, jaundice, and hypotonia, later diagnosed with NSHPT due to a known homozygous mutation (c.242T>A; p.

Tertiary hyperparathyroidism is characterized by hypercalcemia resulting from autonomous parathyroid hormone production and usually occurs after a prolonged period of secondary hyperparathyroidism. This condition can be a complication of X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), a rare genetic disease characterized by renal phosphate loss and consequent hypophosphatemia. Parathyroidectomy is considered the first-line therapy but surgical intervention can be complicated by hungry bone syndrome.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) has been shown to increase with GA in those undergoing parathyroidectomy (PT) with abnormal parathyroid function, but there are conflicting reports of it in those with normal parathyroid function. In this study, we aim to determine the effects of anesthetic and surgical stress on those with abnormal parathyroid function undergoing PTs as well as those with normal parathyroid function undergoing unilateral/total thyroidectomies (UTs/TTs).

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by a germline pathogenic variant in the MEN1 tumor suppressor gene. Patients with MEN1 have a high risk for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) with a penetrance of nearly 100%, pituitary adenomas (PitAd) in 40% of patients, and neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) of the pancreas (40% of patients), duodenum, lung, and thymus. Increased MEN1-related mortality is mainly related to duodenal-pancreatic and thymic NEN.
