Targeted Parathyroidectomy: Effectiveness and Intraoperative Rapid‐Parathormone Dynamics

Objective: The objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of selective parathyroid exploration, using preoperative image localization and intraoperative rapid‐parathormone (rPTH) assay. The kinetics of intraoperative rPTH in parathyroid adenoma vs. multiglandular disease is assessed.
