Abstract:
Objective [WT5”BZ]To evaluate the result of unilateral exploration for the treatment of hyperparathyroidism caused by parathyroid adenoma.[WT5”HZ]Methods[WT5”BZ] Clinical data of 20 cases from 1986 to 1999 were retrospectively analysed. Preoperative imaging examination was suggestive of unilateral lesion and unilateral exploration was performed accordingly.Results were compared with that of bilateral exploration.[WT5”HZ]Results[WT5”BZ] In 19 out of 20 cases the result of unilateral exploration was satisfactory making bilateral approach unnecessary except for one whose symptom was later proved to be caused by bilateral lesions.[WT5”HZ]Conclusions[WT5”BZ] The authors came to the conclusion that solitary adenoma is the most common cause of hyperparathyroidism in Chinese patients,hence unilateral exploration is of advantages.
