Abstract

Background: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PH) is a common cause of hypercalcaemia (0.3% of the population) and is characterized by high concentrations of calcium and parathyroid hormone (PTH). Minimally invasive radio-guided parathyroidectomy (MIRP) has been made possible due to advancements in pre-operative imaging i.e., sestamibi scans that allows localization of areas of parathyroid hyperactivity.
