Introduction : Although bilateral exploration has been thought to be the standard therapeutic modality for primary hyperparathyroidism(pHPT) due to the admirable cure rate, questions have remained as to whether bilateral neck exploration for all patients with pHPT is needed because 80-85% of patients with pHPT have a single parathyroid adenoma. If the diseased parathyroid can be determined preoperatively, a directed and minimal operation is appropriate using the recent innovations of preoperative diagnosis and operation techniques for parathyroid diseases, the radio-guided parathyroid surgery(RGPS) is one of the standards. In especial, RGPS has been reported beneficial in special circumstances, such as in recurrent disease, ectopic parathyroid, and in mediastinal parathyroid. It can be also useful for the parathyroid disease in previously explored or irradiated neck. Material and Methods : We experienced 2 cases of pHPT successfully treated by RGPS in who previously underwent extensive neck dissection and concomitant external or internal radiotherapy. We adopted and modified the technique described by Dr. James Norman at the University of South Florida-the minimally invasive parathyroidectomy using intraoperative nuclear mapping with 99mTc-sestamibi scanning and radioactivity detection probe. Results : We acquired the successful results for these patients. Conclusion : RGPS is thought to be the alternative technique for the patients with prior central neck exploration and irradiation.

Parathyroid adenoma can cause extracapsular bleeding. In 1934, Capps first reported a case of massive hemorrhage secondary to rupture of a parathyroid adenoma. Recently, we experienced a 73-year-old female presented with pharyngeal discomfort and extensive ecchymosis over the neck without history of trauma. Endoscopic investigation revealed submucosal hemorrhage in the posterior wall of the hypopharynx. CT scan and ultrasonography demonstrated the presence of a mass below the left thyroid lobe. Serum calcium level was normal and PTH level was elevated. We underwent left thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy 2 weeks later from first visit. During the operation, hypopharyngeal mucosa was teared and it was treated with pharyngostoma formation and L-tube feeding. We report a rare case of normocalcemic parathyroid adenoma with spontaneous hemorrhage and propose the proper management period with a literature review.

Cystic parathyroid adenoma is one of rare causes of hyperparathyroidism, and tends to cause increased serum level of parathyroid hormone, alkaline phosphate and serum calcium level similar to when compared to those of solid adenoma. The possibility of a coincidental appearance of primary hyperparathyrodism and nonmedullary thyroid cancer is rare, and often neglected. A 40-year-old female presented with constipation and weight loss for 3 months. The serum calcium, phosphate and alkaline phosphate were 16.6 mg/dl, 2.2 mg/dl and 505 IU/L respectively and serum parathyroid hormone level was 1556.2 pg/mL. Neck US showed mixed nodules at both thyroid lobes, and PET-CT showed a right thyroid nodule without FDG uptake. The patient was diagnosed of primary hyperparathyroidism and underwent parathyroidectomy and a total thyroidectomy. Histopathologic results revealed parathyroid adenoma with cystic change (2 cm greater diameter) in the right lower parathyroid gland and coexistent papillary carcinoma of the right lobe of thyroid gland (infiltrating, 0.3 cm in greater diameter). She remained well and serum calcium, phosphate, parathyroid hormone level were normalized within 24 hours.

Primary hyperparathyroidism is still uncommomn disease in Korea. However the frequency of this disease has been slowly increased with routine measurement of serum calcium and increasing awareness of hyperparathyroidism in recent years. The diagnosis is established by a persistent elevation of serum calcium and parathyroid hormone and by clinical evaluation. This is a report of eleven patients with primary hyperparathyroidism treated with surgical operation during a period from 1983 to 1997 at Department of Hospital. Authors analyzed the cases to evaluate clinical characteristics and outcome of surgical treatment retrospectively. The result was as follows. 1) In sex distribution, female patients were eight and three were male, the age distribution ranged from 18 to 67 years. 2) The presenting clinical manifestations were renal and urinary stone in eight, bone pain or fracture in six, muscle weakness in four, neurologic symptoms in four, neck mass in three, hypertension in two, and G-I symptoms in one. 3) All patients showed hypercalcemia and elevated serum parathyroid hormone level. 4) Preoperative localization study was performed with computerized tomography, ultrasonography, MRI, arteriography and thyroid scaning. 5) The tumor locations were left lower in eight, left upper in one, right lower in one, and right upper location was one case. 6) Histopathologic findings disclosed adenoma in all cases. 7) All patients were treated by surgical excision and postoperatively transient hypocalcemia occurred in six patients, but no other complication was developed.

Background and Objectives : Parathyroid adenoma is a rare disease in Korea, but the incidence of parathyroid adenoma has gradually increased due to generalized measurement of serum calcium and imaging study according to wide spread public health screening program. In previous researches, the analysis of clinical aspects were insufficient due to a few cases. The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical analysis of surgically treated parathyroid adenoma with hyperparathyroidism. Methods : We reviewed the medical records of nineteen cases of parathyroid adenoma with hyperparathyroidism. Initial symptom to visit hospital, hypercalcemia associated medical symptom, surgical outcome and complication were investigated. Serum total calcium, parathyroid hormone, phosphate, alkaline phosphatase were checked before and after surgery. Imaging study was performed with combination of radionuclide parathyroid scan, ultrasonography and neck CT scan. Results : The initial symptoms were no symptom(6/19), pelvic pain(5/19), muscular weakness (3/19), bone pain(3/19) and palpable neck mass(2/19) in order of frequency. Serum total calcium, parathyroid hormone decreased and phosphate increased after surgery than before surgery statistically significantly. Sensitivities of parathyroid scan, neck ultrasonography and neck CT as preoperative localization test were 88.2%, 72.7%, 73.3% each. The most common postoperative complication was transient hypocalcemia(9/19). Conclusion : Similar to previous study, parathyroid adenomas have numerous clinical features and surgical treatment via unilateral approach with preoperatively localized single parathyroid adenoma was successful. In our study, parathyroid adenoma was predominantly detected by elevated serum calcium level with no clinical symptom so we need to evaluate parathyroid adenoma, if serum calcium elevated.

신성골이영양증 (Renal osteodystrophy)은 만성 신질환 환자에서 관찰되는 골격성 변화를 특징으로 하는 질환으로 칼슘과 인 대사의 변화, 그리고 이차성 부갑상선 기능항진증의 결과로 나타난다. 방사선학적으로 지골의 말단, 장골과 악골 부위의 골막하 부위의 침식을 흔하게 관찰할 수 있다. 악안면 영역에서 골변화는 골밀도의 감소, 방사선 투과성 병소 (갈색 종양 : brown tumor), 피질골의 비박화와 치조백선의 소실을 보인다. 그러나 이러한 골변화가 악관절에 발생하는 것은 흔치 않은 일이다. 본 증례는 양측 하악 과두의 골변화를 보인 신성골이영양증 환자를 보고하고자 한다. 지난 10년 간 혈액 투석 치료와 3개월 전 신장암 수술 병력이 있는 41세 남자 환자가 좌측 턱의 통증을 주소로 2011년 2월 단국대학교 치과대학부속 치과병원 구강내과에 내원하였다. 양측 악관절의 골관절염과 유사한 방사선학적 소견을 보였고, 전치부 개방교합이 관찰되었다. CBCT를 이용한 방사선학적 특징과 생화학적 지표를 통해 신성골이영양증으로 인한 양측 턱관절의 골관절염으로 진단 되어 환자는 내과에서 신성골이영양증의 치료 방법의 하나인 칼슘 및 비타민 D 복용고 부갑상선 절제술을 시행 받았고, 그 동안 턱관절의 통증 조절을 위해 본원에서는 행동 요법과 약물 치료, 물리치료만 시행하였다. 약 1년 3개월 후 재검사에서 하악골의 골밀도와 피질골 두께가 증가하였고, 하악 과두 외형이 비교적 명확하게 바뀌었다. 골변화는 만성 신장 질환의 초기 단계부터 시작되므로 치과의사는 이러한 질환의 징후 및 가능성을 신속히 감별할 수 있어야 한다. 또한 골관절염과 신성골이영양증의 치료 프로토콜이 다르기 때문에 두 질환을 감별하는 것이 중요하다.

목적: 갑상선기능항진증 환자에서 병소의 국소화를 위하여 시행하는 Tc-99m MIBI를 이용한 double-phase 부갑상선 신티그라피와 SPECT 방법의 진단적 유용성을 평가하고, 부갑상선의 호산성 세포량과 Tc-99m MIBI 섭취와의 관계를 알고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 임상적으로 부갑상선기능항진증이 의심되어 부갑상선 신티그라피가 시행된 16명의 환자중 10명에서 수술이 시행되었고, 여기서 얻은 28개의 부갑상선 조직들을 대상으로 분석하였다. Tc-99m MIBI를 환자에게 정맥주사 후 15분과 2시간에 조기와 지연 바늘구멍 영상을 얻었고 이어서 SPECT 영상을 촬영하였다. 수술로 제거된 부갑상선 조직의 무게와 호산성 세포량을 구하였고, 신티그라피소견을 병리조직 결과와 비교하였다. 결과: 수술로 6개의 부갑상선종과 9개의 부갑상선 비대증이 진단되었다. 조기와 지연 바늘구멍 영상의 민감도, 특이도, 그리고 양성 예측률은 각각 46.7% (7/15),76.9% (10/13), 70% (7/10)과 66.7% (10/15), 92.3% (12/13), 90.9% (10/11)이었다. SPECT 영상은 바늘구멍 영상에 비해 1개의 부갑상선 증식증 병소를 더 진단할 수 있었다. 전체적으로 조기와 지연 바늘구멍 영상과 SPECT 영상을 종합하면 민감도, 특이도, 그리고 양성 예측률은 73.3% (l1/15), 100% (13/13), 100% (11/11)였다. 부갑상선기능항진증의 원인 중부갑상선종은 민감도가 100% (6/6)였으나 부갑상선 증식증은 55.5% (5/9)이었다. 호산성 세포량은 부갑상선종과 부갑상선 증식증에서 정상 부갑상선에 비해 증가되었으나(p<0.0001) 부갑상선종과 부갑상선증식증을 비교하면 호산성 세포량과 무게에는 유의한 차이는 없었다. 결론: Tc-99m MIBI를 이용한 double-phase 부갑상선 신티그라피와 SPECT는 부갑상선기능항진증 환자의 병소 국소화에 효과적인 방법으로 특히 부갑상선종의 국소화에 유용하였다. 부갑상선종과 부갑상선 증식증에서 모두 호산성 세포량이 증가되어 있었으나, 부갑상선종에서는 민감도가 높았고, 부갑상선 증식증에서는 낮았다. 부갑상선증식증에서 민감도가 낮은 원인에 대해서는 더 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
