Overview
Other diagnostic study useful for preoperative localization of hyper-functioning parathyroid glands include super selective venous sampling. Another diagnostic study include measurement of intraoperative parathyroid hormone (IOPTH) by using a modified sensitive assay (immunoradiometric assay). IOPTH is beneficial for predicting long term surgical outcomes.
Other Diagnostic Studies
Super Selective Venous Sampling
- Real-time super selective venous sampling (sSVS) is the most common invasive modality for preoperative localization of hyper-functioning parathyroid glands.[1]
- Real-time sSVS is a highly sensitive and specific technique used when traditional non-invasive imaging studies fail to localize hyper-functioning parathyroid glands preoperatively in patients with persistent or recurrent primary hyperparathyroidism.[2]
- Patients with a 2-fold gradient or more in cervical vein drainage locations (inferior, middle, and superior thyroid veins; thymic and vertebral veins) compared to the baseline value in the iliac vein are considered for exploration.[3]
Intraoperative parathyroid hormone (IOPTH)
- Measurement of intraoperative parathyroid hormone (IOPTH) by using a modified sensitive assay (immunoradiometric assay) is beneficial for predicting long term surgical outcomes. Post-surgical success is defined as postoperative normocalcemia.
- Patients with hyperparathyroidism due to lesion in a single gland shows a rapid decline of intact parathyroid hormone after resection. The levels of intact parathyroid hormone becomes undetectable within hours of resection.[4]
- After resection of parathyroid adenoma, intact parathyroid hormone levels decrease by 85% in first 15 minutes. This fall in parathyroid hormone levels is due to its short half-life.[5]
- The fall in parathyroid hormone level is significantly more after resection of parathyroid adenoma than after resection of parathyroid hyperplasia.
- A fall in level of parathyroid hormone 15 minutes after resection of hyper-functioning parathyroid glands may help differentiating single gland disease from multiple gland disease.[6][7]
- IOPTH monitoring has a predictive accuracy of 97%. [8]
Technique for intraoperative parathyroid hormone (IOPTH) monitoring
- When the enlarged parathyroid gland is first visualized intraoperatively, a baseline sample should be obtained.[9]
- The baseline sample should never be obtained before induction of anesthesia. It is due to the fact that an increase in parathyroid hormone level may be observed after general anesthesia.
- After excision of enlarged gland, 2nd and 3rd samples are collected at 5 and 10 minutes respectively.
- Several criteria are used for predicting post-operative normocalcemia including:
- A decline in parathyroid hormone levels of ≥60% from baseline value at 15 minutes.
- A decline in parathyroid hormone levels of ≥50% from baseline value at 10 minutes.
