Invasive Testing for Preoperative Localization of Parathyroid Tumors
JOURNAL OF THE ENDOCRINE SOCIETY(2023)
摘要
Context: The identification of parathyroid tumor(s) in patients with persistent/recurrent primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is critical for a successful reoperative surgery. If noninvasive studies (ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, sestamibi) fail to conclusively localize the tumor, invasive procedures (arteriography and selective venous sampling) are performed.Objective: To describe our experience with invasive studies for parathyroid tumor localization and provide follow-up data on selective arterial hypocalcemic stimulation with central venous sampling, a technique developed at our center.Methods: We identified patients who underwent preoperative invasive testing for localization of parathyroid tumor from 1991 to 2020. The result of each invasive localization study [arteriogram, hypocalcemic stimulation and selective venous sampling (SVS)] was categorized as true-positive, false-positive, and false-negative based on histology and biochemical outcome.Results: Ninety-four patients with 96 tumor occurrences underwent invasive testing for parathyroid tumor localization. Arteriogram, hypocalcemic stimulation, and SVS accurately localized the tumor in 47 of 94 (50%), 56 of 93 (60%), and 51 of 62 (82%) tumors, respectively. Hypocalcemic stimulation was more likely to correctly localize the tumor when arteriogram showed a blush [37 of 50 (74%) vs 19 of 43 (44%), P = .01]. When both arteriogram and hypocalcemic stimulation yielded concordant positive findings, SVS did not change management in the 18 cases in which all 3 were performed. Twelve patients remained with persistent PHPT; all had recurrent disease with multiple affected glands.Conclusion: Hypocalcemic stimulation is a useful adjunct in patients with PHPT who require invasive localization and can obviate the need for SVS.
