ObjectiveTo compare the efficacy of subtotal parathyroidectomy(sPTX) and total parathyroidectomy (tPTX) plus parathyroid autotransplantation(AT) in treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism(SHPT). MethodsClinical data of 76 cases of uremia SHPT who underwent sPTX(n=19) and tPTX+AT(n=57) in Xinjiang Armed Police Corps Command Military Hospital and The Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed(from Feb. 2005 to Sep. 2012). ResultsOf the 76 cases, 68 cases(89.5%) got successful surgery and 8 cases (10.5%) suffered non-complete resection, all cases had relief on bone pain, and 14 cases had relief on pruritus(26.9%, 14/52). The values of serum calcium on 1 day, 7 days, and 6 months after operation were lower in tPTX+AT group (P<0.05), and value of iPTH in 6 months after operation was lower too(P<0.05). The operation time, blood loss, hospital stay, and hospital cost in tPTX+AT group were all higher or longer(P<0.05). All of the 76 cases were followed up for 6-18 months(the median time was 8.7 months). During the followed-up, 2 cases died and 2 cases recurred in tPTX+AT group, 1 case died and 7 cases recurred in sPTX group, that the recurrence rate was higher in sPTX group (P<0.05). ConclusiontPTX+AT has lower recurrence rate, but with longer operation time and hospital stay, more blood loss, and expensive cost, so the choice of surgery for SHPT should be based on the comprehensive situation.
ObjectiveTo explore and discuss the effects of lanthanum carbonate on serum calcium and phosphorus of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients with chronic renal failure receiving calcitriol pulse therapy due to secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). MethodsCAPD patients caused by SHPT in peritoneal dialysis centre of the Qingdao Municipal Hospital of Eastern Hospital from March to June, 2013 were selected and randomly divided into two groups (lanthanum carbonate group and calcium carbonate group). The lanthanum carbonate group were treated with oral lanthanum carbonate and calcitriol pulse therapy, while the calcium carbonate group were treated with calcium carbonate and calcitriol. Change of levels of serum calcium, phosphorus and iPTH were observed and statistic analysis was conducted using SPSS 17.0. ResultsA total of 40 CAPD patients were included, 20 cases in each group. After 12-week treatment, levels of serium phosphate (t=5.095, P=0.000) and iPTH (t=1.225, P=0.000) in the lanthanum carbonate group were significantly lower than those before treatment. The levels of serum calcium (t=1.127, P=0.001) and phosphate (t=2.035, P=0.000) in the lanthanum carbonate group were significantly lower than those in the calcium carbonate group (P < 0.05). ConclusionLanthanum carbonate serves as a useful approach to improve hypercalcemia and the hyperphosphatemia in CAPD patients receiving calcitriol pulse therapy due to SHPT.
ObjectiveTo explore therapeutic efficacy of parathyroidectomy (PTX) in treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in patients with end-stage renal disease.MethodsThe clinical data of 50 patients who underwent PTX for uremic SHPT from January 2016 to March 2018 were collected retrospectively. The changes of serum calcium, phosphorus, and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) before the surgery and 1 d, 7 d, 1 month, 3 months and 12 months after the surgery were analyzed. In addition, the improvement of clinical symptoms together with the postoperative recurrence and complications were observed.ResultsTen patients underwent the subtotal PTX (SPTX), 5 cases underwent the total PTX (TPTX), and 35 cases underwent the TPTX with autotransplantation (TPTX+AT). The PTXs were performed successfully in 47/50 (94.0%) patients. After the PTX, the bone pain and skin itching were alleviated, 3 cases had the temporary injury of recurrent laryngeal nerve and the hypoparathyroidism was found in 1 case. The levels of postoperative serum iPTH, calcemia, and phosphorus were lower than those at the preoperative level, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.050). The postoperative hypocalcemia was frequently seen in 38/50 (76.0%) patients, and it was effectively controlled by the intravenous calcium. After the follow-up for 3 months, the SHPT recurred in 5 cases (10.0%), of whom 3 cases underwent the TPTX+AT. The relapse rate in 12 months after the operation was 9.1% (2/22). There were no statistical differences among the three PTXs methods in the operation successful rate (χ2=3.351, P=0.211) and relapse rates in 3 months (χ2=1.321, P=0.753) and 12 months (χ2=1.794, P=0.411) after the operation.ConclusionsIn China, TPTX+AT is more common than SPTX and TPTX in clinical application. Operations of SPTX, TPTX, and TPTX+AT are safe and effective therapeutic methods for uremic SHPT, which can significantly improve biochemical indicators and quality of life of patients.
ObjectiveTo investigate the role of multiple disciplinary team (MDT) during surgical treatment of renal secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), and identify management points of Departments of Nephrology and Endocrinology.MethodsThe data of patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing surgical treatment for SHPT in West China Hospital of Sichuan University between January 2009 and December 2018 were retrospectively collected. We explained the surgical treatment of MDT in the management of renal SHPT, and compared the changes before and after the establishment of MDT.ResultsA total of 187 patients including 101 males and 86 females were enrolled, with an average age of (47.60±11.28) years old and median dialysis vintage of 7 years. Under MDT, the number of patients with parathyroidectomy increased [(8.50±5.10) vs. (59.50±2.12) patients/year, P<0.001] and the completion rate of preoperative examinations were greatly improved (P<0.001). The success rate of surgery was also increased (86.8% vs. 97.5%, P=0.010). Proportion of patients who were admitted to the Department of Nephrology was significantly increased (39.7% vs. 84.9%, P<0.001). Most patients after surgery were transferred to the Department of Endocrinology (5.9% vs. 77.3%, P<0.001) to manage postoperative complications and metabolic bone disease, and thus normalized the management of SHPT.ConclusionsThe MDT contributes to management of renal SHPT, which is worthy of popularization and spreading. The management of internal medicine departments during surgical treatment of SHPT based on MDT is important, because they can be helpful to complete preoperative examinations and preoperative preparation as well as to alleviate postoperative complications.
ObjectiveTo summarize the current treatment status of uremic secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in order to improve the understanding of uremic SHPT and to guide clinical work.MethodThe relevant literatures at home and abroad on surgical treatment of uremic SHPT were readed and reviewed.ResultsFor intractable SHPT patients with ineffective medical treatment, surgical treatment was still irreplaceable, which could significantly improve biochemical indicators and quality of life of SHPT patients. However, there was no unified standard for surgical indications and the choice of different operation methods. In addition, there was a certain controversy about whether there was a need for preoperative parathyroidectomy in patients with SHPT who were willing to have a kidney transplant.ConclusionAlthough there are still some problems need to be solved in surgical treatment of SHPT, however, it’s widely recognized and used by clinicians, which can improve the symptoms of SHPT patients and bring bettersurvival benefits.
ObjectiveTo explore the selection and application value of preoperative stereotactic localization in the surgical treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism.MethodsThe preoperative ultrasound, CT, and methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) scan data of 54 patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism confirmed by pathological examination in the Department of General Surgery of the 900th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Team from September 2016 to January 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, to explore the localization accuracy of the three methods alone or in combination.ResultsIn this study, a total of 207 parathyroids were detected, 1 was misdiagnosed (ectopic thymus),9 were missed, and 216 parathyroids were removed. The preoperative localization accuracy of CT, ultrasound, and MIBI was the highest (95.39%, 207/217), followed by ultrasound and MIBI (93.55%, 203/217) and CT+MIBI (89.40%, 194/217), compared with other single or two methods, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The accuracy of CT combined with ultrasound localization (82.49%, 179/217) was slightly higher than that of MIBI scan alone (78.80%, 171/217), but the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.060). Although the location accuracy of MIBI scan was slightly higher than that of ultrasound localization (77.88%, 169/217), the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.084).ConclusionIn order to maximize the accuracy of preoperative stereotactic localization of secondary hyperparathyroidism, ultrasound, CT, and MIBI should be combined.
