Abstract
The surgical removal of diseased parathyroid glands is the only curative treatment for primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism. Before an intervention, the confirmed diagnosis and an accurate localization are decisive for selection of the appropriate procedure. After appropriate localization diagnostics, a focussed intervention is possible for primary hyperparathyroidism, whereby every intervention must be controlled by intraoperative monitoring of parathyroid hormone. Reoperations or multiple glandular disease necessitate a differentiated approach with appropriate prior diagnostics.
