Pre-operative ultrasound echography (USE) was performed in 24 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism. Surgical exploration showed 23 adenomas and was negative in 2 cases. USE gave 14 true positive, 3 false positive, 4 true negative and 6 false negative results. The specificity of the method was 79% and its sensitivity 93%. These figures are similar to those of recently published series. USE is a delicate but rewarding technique. In the hands of sonographists trained in cervical ultrasonography, it might eventually be used routinely to localize parathyroid tumours prior to surgery.
对24例原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进患者进行了术前超声检查（USE）。手术探查发现23例腺瘤，2例为阴性。USE检查结果为14例假阳性、3例假阴性、4例真阴性和6例真阳性。该方法的特异性为79%，敏感性为93%。这些数据与最近发表的系列研究结果相似。USE是一种精细但值得采用的技术。在接受过颈部超声检查培训的超声科医生手中，它最终可能会常规用于术前甲状旁腺肿瘤的定位。
