Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical parameter, diagnosis and operative mode of parathyroid tumor. Methods The clinical symptoms, examination methods and the mode of operation in 15 operated patients with parathyroid tumor from May 1979 to October 2001 were retrospectively analyzed. Results 15 patients with parathyroid tumors, including 10 adenomas, 3 carcinoma and 2 cysts, all revealed the symptom of hyperparathyroidism except 2 cases of cyst. The accuracy of B-US and CT in preoperative diagnosis on location was 86 7% and 91 7% respectively, and their accuracy in preoperative diagnosis on quality was 26 7% and 75 0% respectively. All patients were treated by surgery. Among them, 12 patients were cured, 1 died, and 2 relapsed. Conclusion If a patient has the symptoms of bone pain, nephrolith and the mass in neck, we should consider whether he suffers from parathyroid tumor. B-US is the first choice in preoperative diagnosis on tumor location, and CT was the good examination method for tumor location also. The diagnosis on tumor quality dependeds on pathological examination mostly. Surgery remains to be the most important. The only unilateral exploration for the benign parathyroid tumor is performed and the operative range of parathyroid carcinoma should include both the mass and thyroid.
