The analysis of 20 personal cases of parathyroid hyperplasia or adenoma suggest the following conclusions: 1. The importance of dosage of the parathormone is a decisive factor of the diagnosis and yields data: a) in relation with the volume of the adenoma; b) that return to normal 24 hours after resection; c) that constitute the proof of complete resection. 2. The little utility of the diagnosis of location bij means of elaborate paraclinical exams. The authors show false positive angiograms. Only the inspection of the four parathyroids and of the main heterotopic areas is a valid means of disclosing the lesions responsible of the hyperparathyroidism. It is essential to operate with a skilled pathologist who will read frozen sections.
