A 72-year-old female patient with chronic kidney disease stage presented with multiple parathyroid adenomas and tertiary hyperparathyroidism. SPECT/CT with Tc-MIBI revealed accumulation of radiopharmaceuticals in 2 out of 4 parathyroid glands. Ultrasound established localization of all parathyroid glands. Subtotal parathyroidectomy with excision of 3 glands and resection of half of the fourth gland was performed. Intraoperative indocyanine green angiography was performed to identify all parathyroid glands and remnant perfusion. There was normal parathyroid function after 6 months.

Case report: Prolonged and severe hungry bone syndrome after parathyroidectomy in X-linked hypophosphatemia.

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.

Background: Recently, several devices exploiting the near-infrared autofluorescence (NIR-AF) of parathyroid glands (PGs) have been developed. Nevertheless, their impact on both preserving PGs from inadvertent surgical dissection and on post-surgical hypoparathyroidism (hypoPTH) is controversial.
Methods: A retrospective study of 845 patients undergoing thyroid surgery in 2 academic tertiary centres was conducted.
Permanent hypoparathyroidism following total thyroidectomy - Incidence and preventative strategies without imaging adjuncts.

Introduction: Permanent hypoparathyroidism (pHypoPT) is the most common permanent complication of total thyroidectomy. We aim to describe the incidence and predictors of hypoparathyroidism in a consecutive series of patients treated in a high-volume centre and define strategies to reduce the risk of pHypoPT.
Methods: 1182 patients who underwent total thyroidectomy between April 2018 and June 2022 were analyzed.

Embryonic mammary gland development unfolds with the specification of bilateral mammary lines, thereafter progressing through placode, bud, and sprout stages before branching morphogenesis. Extensive epithelial-mesenchymal interactions guide morphogenesis from embryogenesis to adulthood. Two distinct mesenchymal tissues are involved, the primary mammary mesenchyme that harbors mammary inductive capacity, and the secondary mesenchyme, the precursor of the adult stroma.

Ann Endocrinol (Paris)

Department of Endocrinology Diabetes Nutrition, Hôpital Robert-Debré, CHU de Reims, F-51100 Reims, France. Electronic address:
Persistent primary hyperparathyroidism is defined as the persistence or recurrence of hypercalcemia within 6 months of parathyroid surgery. Recurrent primary hyperparathyroidism is defined as the recurrence of primary hyperparathyroidism more than 6 months after an initially curative parathyroidectomy. In these situations, it is essential to rule out differential diagnoses, and in particular secondary hyperparathyroidism and familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia.
