Transoral laser microsurgery (TLM) is a minimally invasive surgical alternative for radiotherapy (RT) in the primary management of early glottic cancer. More recently, TLM emerged also as possible salvage treatment selected radiorecurrent cancers. We reviewed outcomes and performed Belgian tertiary referral center.A retrospective review records from 142 consecutive patients who underwent was performed. Oncologic were evaluated by means descriptive statistics Kaplan-Meier estimates. Variation...
Abstract The objective of this study was to retrospectively evaluate preoperative imaging modalities for localization parathyroid adenomas with a view enable minimally invasive parathyroidectomy and in particular, consider the contribution 18 F-fluorocholine-PET/CT. 104 patients primary hyperparathyroidism, who underwent surgery single centre during 6-year period were included. Of these, 103 ultrasound, 97 99m Tc-Pertechnetate/SestaMIBI-SPECT, 20 MRI 30 Based on surgical findings,...
Abstract We retrospectively evaluated how accurately preoperative imaging localizes parathyroid adenoma in superior versus inferior parathyroids. Over 6 years, 104 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism underwent surgery a single centre. Of these, 103 ultrasound, 97 [ 99m Tc]pertechnetate/MIBI SPECT/CT and 30 18 F]fluorocholine (FCH) PET/CT. One patient unilateral double was excluded from the analysis. Surgical findings histopathologic confirmation of were used as standard. Ultrasound...
Summary Primary hyperparathyroidism most commonly presents with hypercalcaemia. Rarely, parathyroid apoplexy or haemorrhage mimicking a thyroid bleeding cyst is the first presentation of adenoma. A woman presented sudden-onset painful ‘goitre’. Ultrasound showed cystic nodule located posterior to rather than in right lobe, suggesting adenoma bleeding. Biochemistry mild primary hyperparathyroidism. 99m Tc-pertechnetate/sestamibi no uptake nodule, which was interpreted as cold nodule. 18...
