Primary hyperparathyroidism often presents with protean manifestations, resulting in delayed diagnosis. At times, aberrant development and migration of the gland leads to ectopic location leading to problems in localization. Judicious use of combination methods of localization is recommended in treatment failure or recurrent disease. We report the use of single photon emission computed tomography-CT in precise localization of parathyroid adenoma in a patient with failed initial surgery.
原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进症常表现出多种症状，导致诊断延迟。有时，甲状旁腺的异常发育和迁移会导致其异位，从而造成定位困难。对于治疗失败或复发的疾病，建议明智地联合使用定位方法。我们报告了在一名初次手术失败的患者中，使用单光子发射计算机断层扫描-CT精确定位甲状旁腺腺瘤的情况。
