Comparison of microwave ablation treatments in patients with renal secondary and primary hyperparathyroidism.

ABSTRACT: Purpose: Microwave ablation (MWA) is feasible for severe renal secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) and primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) patients ineligible for parathyroidectomy (PTX). Here we compared the clinical manifestations and characteristics of parathyroid glands in these two groups, and summarized the techniques, safety and efficacy of MWA.Methods: Baseline clinical characteristics, ablation-related techniques, adverse events/complications, and efficacy were recorded.Results: In SHPT group, malnutrition, cardiovascular/pulmonary complications, and abnormal bone metabolism were severe. SHPT patients had more hyperplastic parathyroid glands. The volume of each gland was smaller, and the time of ablation for a single parathyroid was shorter in the SHPT group, although there were no significant differences compared with patients in the PHPT group. Three patients in both groups had recurrent laryngeal nerve injuries and all recovered, except for one SHPT patient. By the end of follow-up, serum iPTH levels had decreased from 2400.26 ± 844.26 pg/mL to 429.39 ± 407.93 pg/mL (p < .01) in SHPT and from 297.73 ± 295.32 pg/mL to 72.22 ± 36.51 pg/mL in PHPT group (p < .01). Hypocalcemia was more common (p < .001) and serum iPTH levels were prone to rebound in SHPT patients after MWA.Conclusion: MWA can be reserved for those who had high surgical risks because of less invasiveness. Injuries of recurrent laryngeal nerves should be noticed. The health status, perioperative, and intraoperative procedures were more complicated and all parathyroids found by ultrasound should be ablated completely in SHPT patients.

Project description:There is now growing interest in the use of Ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) to treat hyperparathyroidism. But the efficacy and limitations of this treatment have not been described in sufficient detail. Assessing and contrasting the effectiveness and safety of RFA in treating primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). This retrospective study included 57 HPT patients (48 for PHPT and 9 for SHPT) who underwent RFA between January 2017 and April 2021. The serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and calcium, hyperplastic parathyroid volume, volume reduction rate (VRR) before and after RFA, clinical success rate, symptoms, and complications were analyzed and compared. In SHPT group, bone pain (7/9, 77.8%), skin pruritus (4/9, 44.4%), and multiple hyperplastic parathyroid glands (4/9, 44.4%) were more common compared to the PHPT group. After 12 months of follow-up, the serum iPTH, calcium, and the volume of PHPT and SHPT groups had decreased by more than 60%, 10%, and 90%, respectively (P < 0.05). In the VRR, 13 glands of SHPT (72.2%) and 42 glands of PHPT (87.5%) had achieved the clinical success. In addition, the preoperative and postoperative serum iPTH were higher in the SHPT group than in the PHPT group (P < 0.05). In terms of the serum iPTH and calcium, the PHPT group had substantially higher rates of clinical success, with 42 patients (87.5%) and 46 patients (95.8%) meeting the criteria, respectively compared to 3 patients (33.3%) and 6 patients (66.7%) of SHPT group (P < 0.05). After RFA, the clinical symptoms improved in both groups. The overall incidence of complications (hoarseness and postoperative hematoma) of RFA in the two groups was 10.5% (6/57), and hoarseness (3/9, 33.3%) of SHPT group was more common than PHPT group. All the complications were resolved spontaneously within 12 months after symptomatic treatments. In the treatment of PHPT and SHPT, ultrasound-guided RFA is both successful and safe. PHPT patients have better results in restoring normal iPTH by RFA, and have no considerable difference with the SHPT patients in terms of serum calcium, the volume of the ablation area, and the VRR.

Project description:Secondary hyperparathyroidism contributes to post-transplant CKD mineral and bone disorder. Paricalcitol, a selective vitamin D receptor activator, decreased serum parathyroid hormone levels and proteinuria in patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism. This single-center, prospective, randomized, crossover, open-label study compared the effect of 6-month treatment with paricalcitol (1 μg/d for 3 months and then uptitrated to 2 µg/d if tolerated) or nonparicalcitol therapy on serum parathyroid hormone levels (primary outcome), mineral metabolism, and proteinuria in 43 consenting recipients of renal transplants with secondary hyperparathyroidism. Participants were randomized 1:1 according to a computer-generated sequence. Compared with baseline, median (interquartile range) serum parathyroid hormone levels significantly declined on paricalcitol from 115.6 (94.8-152.0) to 63.3 (52.0-79.7) pg/ml (P<0.001) but not on nonparicalcitol therapy. At 6 months, levels significantly differed between treatments (P<0.001 by analysis of covariance). Serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin decreased on paricalcitol therapy only and significantly differed between treatments at 6 months (P<0.001 for all comparisons). At 6 months, urinary deoxypyridinoline-to-creatinine ratio and 24-hour proteinuria level decreased only on paricalcitol (P<0.05). L3 and L4 vertebral mineral bone density, assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorption, significantly improved with paricalcitol at 6 months (P<0.05 for both densities). Paricalcitol was well tolerated. Overall, 6-month paricalcitol supplementation reduced parathyroid hormone levels and proteinuria, attenuated bone remodeling and mineral loss, and reduced eGFR in renal transplant recipients with secondary hyperparathyroidism. Long-term studies are needed to monitor directly measured GFR, ensure that the bone remodeling and mineral effects are sustained, and determine if the reduction in proteinuria improves renal and cardiovascular outcomes.
