- The intraoperative differential diagnosis between adenoma and hyperplasia during surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is sometimes difficult. Several methods have been proposed to aid the surgeon in deciding on the amount of parathyroid tissue to be resected. We examined the use of intraoperative monitoring of intact PTH in 47 patients operated upon for pHPT. The highly sensitive assay for intact PTH was modified to permit a total turn-around time from gland excision to obtained result of about 60 min. The correlation (r) between the results of the modified and the conventional method, which requires 24 h of incubation, was 0.98. At 15 min after removal of the parathyroid adenoma the levels of intact PTH had decreased by [mean (SD)] 85 (11)%. A decrease of 63% in intact PTH in patients with parathyroid adenoma predicted with 95% confidence the 4 patients with primary hyperplasia as not having parathyroid adenoma. We conclude that intraoperative measurement of intact PTH could be a valuable adjunct to surgical skill, especially for reoperative parathyroid surgery.
