Parathyroidectomy Improves Survival In Patients with Severe Hyperparathyroidism: A Comparative Study
2013
Background and objectives
Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in CKD is associated with an increased risk for mortality, but definitive data showing that parathormone control decreases mortality is still lacking. This study aimed to compare the mortality of patients with severe SHPT submitted to parathyroidectomy(PTX) with those who did not have access to surgery.
