Parathyroidectomy

Parathyroidectomy

Parathyroidectomy is a surgical procedure performed to remove one or more of the parathyroid glands, typically due to hyperparathyroidism, a condition characterized by overactivity of these glands. These small glands, usually four in number and located near the thyroid gland in the neck, regulate calcium levels in the body. When they become overactive, they produce excessive amounts of parathyroid hormone (PTH), leading to elevated calcium levels in the blood. The surgery is conducted under general anesthesia and involves making a small incision in the neck to access the parathyroid glands. Surgeons carefully identify and remove the affected gland(s) while preserving the remaining healthy glands to maintain proper calcium regulation. Minimally invasive techniques, such as focused exploration or video-assisted approaches, may also be utilized, resulting in smaller incisions and quicker recovery times. After the procedure, patients may experience a temporary drop in calcium levels, requiring calcium and vitamin D supplements. However, parathyroidectomy effectively addresses hyperparathyroidism, alleviating symptoms like bone pain, fatigue, kidney stones, and other complications associated with elevated calcium levels, thus improving overall health and quality of life. Close post-operative monitoring ensures proper healing and restoration of normal calcium levels.
