[Topical diagnostic methods in primary hyperparathyroidism].
The efficiency of USI of the neck, scintigraphy of the parathyroid glands (PTG) with selen-methionine and selective catheterization of veins (SCV) of the neck and mediastinum for preoperative determination of the localization of the source of hyperproduction of the parathyroid hormone was analyzed on the basis of results of examination of 149 patients including 51 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism confirmed during the operation. It was noted that none of the methods of topical diagnostics used in the work is thought to be universal for different clinical situations. A method of their complex use is proposed which foresee USI of the neck as the first step. In case of insufficient information of the results of USI the authors propose SCV of the neck and mediastinum as a method of choice which allows the size and level of the altered PTG to become more exact and which makes further search with the help of other methods of topical diagnostics more purposeful and effective.
