THE EFFECT OF CINACALCET (SENSIPAR®) ON INTRAOPERATIVE FINDINGS IN TERTIARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM PATIENTS UNDERGOING PARATHYROIDECTOMY

摘要

IntroductionTertiary hyperparathyroidism (3HPTH) patients who undergo parathyroidectomy are often managed with calcium lowering medications such as cinacalcet (Sensipar®) preceding surgery. Here, we assess how cinacalcet (Sensipar®) treatment influences intraoperative PTH (IOPTH) kinetics and surgical findings in 3HPTH patients undergoing parathyroidectomy.
