A retrospective database analysis of pediatric parathyroidectomies from the United Kingdom registry of endocrine and Thyroid Surgeons
This analysis demonstrates that first-time pediatric parathyroidectomy for PHPT is safe and effective. Familial cases have a higher rate of postoperative hypocalcemia; therefore, parents should be informed of this when consented. Targeted parathyroidectomy is safe and effective in both sporadic and familial cases, as long as there is positive preoperative imaging.
