Abstract
Objective: To review the position of the parathyroid glands in patients with hyperparathyroidism. Subject and method: A prospective, cross-sectional study of 244 patients with hyperparathyroidism (HPT) diagnosed and treated by surgery at the National Hospital of Endocrinology since March 2016 until September 2019. Result: A total of 244 patients included 38 primary HPT, 141 secondary HPT, 65 tertiary HPT. A total of 822 parathyroid tumors were identified and removed: 415 on the right and 407 on the left. In all 3 HPT groups, the parathyroid pathology was identified and resected, usually at position E with a total of 351 blocks (42.7%), position B (189/822 = 23%) and position A (166/822 = 20.2%). Conclusion: Exact determination the location of the parathyroid glands plays an important role in thyroid and parathyroid surgery.
