[Parathyreoid autoransplantation in secondary hyperparathyreoidism (author's transl)]. 1977

I Klempa

Subtotal Parathyreoidectomy offers no problem after surgery, nor after Kidney transplantation. But a recurrence needs extensive investigations for localisation of recurrent hyperplastic glands. The necessary reoperation is loaded with difficulties. After total Parathyreoidectomy hypocalcaemia is a severe complication. Therefore in patients awaiting Kidney transplants in a chronic dialysis program the procedure is not opportune. In 11 patients following total Parathyreoidectomy and autoplastic parathyreoid transplant, we found nearly normal parathyreoid hormone plasma levels. The advantage of this method is: The function of the autoplastic graft is testable and a possible recurrence is easily resectable.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006962 Hyperparathyroidism, Secondary Abnormally elevated PARATHYROID HORMONE secretion as a response to HYPOCALCEMIA. It is caused by chronic KIDNEY FAILURE or other abnormalities in the controls of bone and mineral metabolism, leading to various BONE DISEASES, such as RENAL OSTEODYSTROPHY. Secondary Hyperparathyroidism,Hyperparathyroidisms, Secondary,Secondary Hyperparathyroidisms
D010280 Parathyroid Glands Two pairs of small oval-shaped glands located in the front and the base of the NECK and adjacent to the two lobes of THYROID GLAND. They secrete PARATHYROID HORMONE that regulates the balance of CALCIUM; PHOSPHORUS; and MAGNESIUM in the body. Gland, Parathyroid,Glands, Parathyroid,Parathyroid Gland
D010281 Parathyroid Hormone A polypeptide hormone (84 amino acid residues) secreted by the PARATHYROID GLANDS which performs the essential role of maintaining intracellular CALCIUM levels in the body. Parathyroid hormone increases intracellular calcium by promoting the release of CALCIUM from BONE, increases the intestinal absorption of calcium, increases the renal tubular reabsorption of calcium, and increases the renal excretion of phosphates.
