[Diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism based on determination of parathormone in venous blood of the neck (author's transl)].
Experiences with 77 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (HPT) are reported. Among the diagnostic parameters, the serum calcium level is the most significant; a definite diagnosis can be made through PTH-RIA. The problem of HPT diagnosis are discussed. For standardization, our own human PTH preparation, produced from tissue culture of operatively removed human adenoma of the parathyroid gland, has been used. For determination of parathormone, venous blood should be selectively extracted from the neck before every relapse-necessitated operation. The technically expensive and difficult examination methods do not excuse the surgeon from carefully exploring all of the parathyroid glands, though the general procedures to be applied before the first operation are still disputed.
