Now in a revised and updated second edition, this text remains a comprehensive resource for the medical and surgical management of diseases of the parathyroid, divided into five thematic sections. Part one provides a general introduction to the parathyroid, including presentation and diagnosis of hypercalcemia and primary, secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism. Parathyroid imaging is presented in part two, including ultrasound, CT, PET, and angiography and venous sampling. Parts three and four comprise indications and techniques for parathyroid surgery, and part five expands on surgical adjuncts including intraoperative monitoring, radioguidance, auto- and allotransplantation, and more. In addition, there is a supplemental collection of video segments demonstrating many of the surgical techniques described in earlier chapters.
Written and edited by experts in the field, Medical and Surgical Treatment of Parathyroid Diseases, Second Editions remains a sterling resource for surgeons, otolaryngologists and oncologists at various stages of experience.
