Primary hyperparathyroidism/(PHPT) is one of the most common endocrinological conditions. Surgery remains the only curative option. We have evaluated the performance of double isotope I/Tc-sestamibi parathyroid scintigraphy/(PS) with subtraction SPECT/CT in PHP for identifying uniglandular disease.
Ninety PHPT patients undergoing parathyroidectomy (December 2015-August 2016) were included. All patients were evaluated with neck ultrasound/(US), PS and SPECT/CT with a new protocol. Outcomes from imaging modalities were reported as: uniglandular disease/(UGD), multiglandular disease/(MGD), or negative, and were compared to post-operative diagnoses.
Post-operatively, 72 and 18 patients had true UGD and MGD, respectively. Sensitivities and specificities of US, pinhole scintigraphy with subtraction, pinhole and SPECT/CT with subtraction, and all modalities combined were 91.7%/38.9%, 88.9%/72.2%, 93%/66.7% and 84.72%/77.78%, respectively: specificity of US + PS superior to US alone, p = 0.074. SPECT/CT enables reclassification of doubtful uptake foci.
Combination of neck US and PS with subtraction SPECT/CT offers a higher specificity for guiding towards minimally invasive parathyroidectomy.
原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进症(PHPT)是最常见的内分泌疾病之一。手术仍然是唯一的治愈选择。我们评估了双同位素 I/Tc- sestamibi 甲状旁腺闪烁显像术(PS)与减影 SPECT/CT 在 PHPT 中单发性疾病中的应用。
纳入 90 例接受甲状旁腺切除术的 PHPT 患者(2015 年 12 月至 2016 年 8 月)。所有患者均采用新方案进行颈部超声(US)、PS 和 SPECT/CT 评估。影像学结果报告为单发性疾病(UGD)、多发性疾病(MGD)或阴性,并与术后诊断进行比较。
术后,72 例和 18 例患者分别为真性 UGD 和 MGD。US、针孔减影闪烁显像术、针孔和减影 SPECT/CT 以及所有联合模式的灵敏度和特异性分别为 91.7%/38.9%、88.9%/72.2%、93%/66.7%和 84.72%/77.78%:US+PS 的特异性优于单独使用 US,p=0.074。SPECT/CT 可重新分类可疑摄取灶。
颈部 US 和 PS 联合减影 SPECT/CT 可提高指导微创甲状旁腺切除术的特异性。
