Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop evidence-based recommendations for safe, effective, and appropriate treatment of secondary (SHPT) and tertiary (THPT) renal hyperparathyroidism. BACKGROUND Hyperparathyroidism is common among patients with chronic kidney disease, end-stage kidney disease, and kidney transplant. The surgical management of SHPT and THPT is nuanced and requires a multidisciplinary approach. There are currently no clinical practice guidelines that address the surgical treatment of SHPT and THPT. METHODS Medical literature was reviewed from January 1, 1985 to present January 1, 2021 by a panel of 10 experts in SHPT and THPT. Recommendations using the best available evidence was constructed. The American College of Physicians grading system was used to determine levels of evidence. Recommendations were discussed to consensus. The American Association of Endocrine Surgeons membership reviewed and commented on preliminary drafts of the content. RESULTS These clinical guidelines present the epidemiology and pathophysiology of SHPT and THPT and provide recommendations for work-up and management of SHPT and THPT for all involved clinicians. It outlines the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative management of SHPT and THPT, as well as related definitions, operative techniques, morbidity, and outcomes. Specific topics include Pathogenesis and Epidemiology, Initial Evaluation, Imaging, Preoperative and Perioperative Care, Surgical Planning and Parathyroidectomy, Adjuncts and Approaches, Outcomes, and Reoperation. CONCLUSIONS Evidence-based guidelines were created to assist clinicians in the optimal management of secondary and tertiary renal hyperparathyroidism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Main surgical treatments for secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) include subtotal parathyroidectomy (sPTX), total parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation (tPTX+AT), and total parathyroidectomy (tPTX); however, determining the best treatment is debatable. We conducted a network meta-analysis (NMA) comparing three treatments in terms of postoperative hypocalcemia (or hypoparathyroidism), postoperative recurrence, and reoperation. METHODS We searched PubMed, Medline, the Cochrane Library, and Embase for relevant research from inception to July 30, 2019. We performed our Bayesian NMA using R 3.51 software to assess odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Network and forest plots displayed study outputs. Potential publication bias was assessed with funnel plots using software Stata/MP 13.0. RESULTS Twenty-six articles comprising 5063 patients were included in our NMA, which showed that postoperative hypocalcemia (or hypoparathyroidism) occurred more frequently in tPTX than in sPTX (OR = 3.50, 95% CI 1.10-11.0) or tPTX+AT patients (OR = 1.80, 95% CI 0.66-5.20). Regarding postoperative hypocalcemia (or hypoparathyroidism), there was no significant difference between sPTX and tPTX+AT (OR = 0.53, 95% CI 0.24-1.10). As for recurrence rates, statistically significant differences were observed between sPTX and tPTX (OR = 25.0, 95% CI 5.1-260), tPTX+AT and tPTX (OR = 20.0, 95% CI 4.2-200), and sPTX and tPTX+AT (OR = 1.30, 95% CI 0.65-2.50). Regarding reoperation rates, sPTX experienced higher incidence compared with tPTX+AT (OR = 1.20, 95% CI 0.53-2.70) or tPTX patients (OR = 2.70, 95% CI 1.20-14.00). CONCLUSIONS TPTX+AT is recommended as the most efficient and safe surgical SHPT treatment with minimal adverse effects. Large-scale randomized controlled trials are recommended to confirm the NMA results.

Abstract
AIM Hyperparathyroidism in chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Parathyroidectomy is widely carried out as treatment despite complications such as hypocalcaemia post-surgery. Our centre has been using an ALP-based protocol to replace calcium postoperatively to prevent hypocalcaemia. We aim to describe and audit our calcium replacement protocol post-parathyroidectomy METHODS: We, retrospectively, analyse 167 end-stage kidney disease patients who had parathyroidectomy with auto-implantation in Singapore General Hospital between January 2008 and December 2013. Their calcium replacement postoperatively was initiated upon patient arrival back in ward on the same day of surgery based on their pre-op ALP prior to occurrence of hypocalcaemia. Patient demographics, surgical and laboratory parameters were reviewed from medical records. Changes in calcium postoperatively were reported to look for incidence of calcium derangement. RESULTS Mean calcium levels between pre-operation day and post-operation day 7 ranged from 2.31 to 2.70 mmol/L. Decline in serum calcium was common in all patients prior to starting calcium replacement. Eighteen patients (10.9%) experienced hypocalcaemia immediately post-operation prior to commencement of IV calcium replacement. Patients with immediate post-operation hypocalcaemia had lower pre-operation calcium but higher pre-operation alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and pre-operation intact parathyroid hormone. Hypercalcaemia is common likely from aggressive IV calcium replacement using the protocol. The average length of stay for patients prior to calcium stabilization and discharge was 9 days. CONCLUSION Implementation of an ALP-based prophylactic calcium replacement protocol with daily serum calcium monitoring can ameliorate severe hypocalcaemia post-parathyroidectomy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We performed this study to investigate the risk factors for postoperative hypocalcemia after total thyroidectomy with central lymph node dissection (CLND). Study Design. This was a single-center prospective study based on 176 consecutive patients who underwent total thyroidectomy for papillary thyroid carcinoma. Setting. Patients were recruited between January 2016 and June 2018. Subjects and Methods. Patients who underwent bilateral (n = 155, bilateral group) and ipsilateral CLND (n = 21) after total thyroidectomy were included. The preoperative and postoperative parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcium levels were detected. The risk factors for transient hypocalcemia were identified using logistic regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS Fifty-one (28.98%) patients developed transient hypocalcemia, and 2 patients (1.14%) developed permanent hypoparathyroidism. There was no difference in the gender ratio or the morbidity of hypocalcemia between the patients who underwent bilateral and ipsilateral CLND. On postoperative day 1, PTH decrease was a risk factor for transient hypocalcemia in the whole cohort (β = 0.043, OR = 1.044, 95% CI 1.023-1.065, p < 0.001), bilateral group (β = 0.042, OR = 1.043, 95% CI 1.022-1.064, p < 0.001), and female patients (β = 0.049, OR = 1.050, 95% CI 1.026-1.075, p < 0.001). Tumor diameter was a risk factor for transient hypocalcemia in female patients (β = 0.499, OR = 1.647, 95% CI 1.003-2.704, p=0.049). The ROC curve analysis illustrated that 65.58%, 71.00%, and 71.00% PTH level reduction had high accuracy in predicting transient hypocalcemia in the whole cohort, bilateral group, and female patients, respectively (AUC = 0.986, 0.987, and 0.987). CONCLUSION Asymptomatic female patients with bilateral CLND and a 71.00% PTH level reduction were at a high risk of transient hypocalcemia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a serious and common problem in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. Minimally invasive microwave ablation (MWA) has been used to treat SHPT and shows some advantages. However, its efficacy is still undefined. The primary purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of MWA compared to total parathyroidectomy plus forearm autotransplantation. METHODS The SHPT patients who were undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (follow-up for 6 to 24 months after treatments) were divided into a MWA group (n = 33) and a parathyroidectomy group (n = 48). The efficacy (serum intact parathyroid hormone [iPTH], calcium, and phosphorus levels) and safety (hoarseness, hypocalcaemia, and persistently low iPTH) were compared between the two groups. Additionally, the study explored potential predictors of response to MWA by a logistic regression analysis. FINDINGS There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups. The rates of achieving the recommended goal for iPTH were significantly higher in the MWA group than that in the parathyroidectomy group at all follow-up times: 57.58% vs. 12.50% at one-day (P < 0.001), 45.45% vs. 16.67% at 1-week (P = 0.005), 57.58% vs. 16.67% at 2-week (P < 0.001), 57.58% vs. 22.92% at 1-month (P = 0.002), and 69.70% vs. 35.42% at 3-month (P = 0.002), 76.47% vs. 28.57% at 6-month (P = 0.005), 87.50% vs. 47.37% at 12-month (P = 0.008), and 81.82% vs. 52.63% at 24-month (P = 0.015), respectively. However, there were no significant differences for phosphorus or calcium at any of the follow-up times (P > 0.05). The persistently low iPTH was more in the parathyroidectomy group (64.6%) than that in the MWA group (0%) (P < 0.001), but there was no significant difference in hoarseness or hypocalcaemia (P > 0.05). Baseline levels of iPTH (P = 0.021) and patient age (P = 0.011) were determined as predictors by univariate logistic regression analysis. CONCLUSION The MWA could be an alternative to parathyroidectomy for SHPT but its eventual superiority has to be demonstrated by a proper study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether palliative gastrectomy combined with chemotherapy can improve the survival of patients with advanced gastric cancer remains controversial. We performed a meta-analysis to clarify whether palliative gastrectomy plus chemotherapy can benefit patients with incurable advanced gastric cancer and to explore the best candidates in this patient population. METHODS We searched the literature systematically using electronic databases including PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library. And HRs and their 95% CIs were used to express the results for overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS One randomized controlled trial with 175 patients and 12 cohort studies with 2,193 patients were analyzed. The pooled HR for OS (HR=0.43, 95% CI=0.29-0.65, P<0.001), subgroup analysis of stage M1 (HR=0.53, 95% CI=0.40-0.72, P<0.001), peritoneal dissemination (HR=0.46, 95% CI=0.28-0.73, P=0.001), and liver metastasis (HR=0.46, 95% CI=0.33-0.65, P<0.001) all indicated the superiority of palliative gastrectomy plus chemotherapy. However, the pooled HR for PFS (HR=0.61, 95% CI=0.33-1.13, P=0.110) got separate outcome. CONCLUSION The results of this meta-analysis indicated that palliative gastrectomy plus chemotherapy can improve OS for incurable advanced gastric cancer. In addition, analyses based on liver metastasis and peritoneal dissemination demonstrated the advantages of palliative gastrectomy plus chemotherapy. However, the PFS of incurable advanced gastric cancer with palliative gastrectomy plus chemotherapy was no better than that under chemotherapy alone.

Abstract
Background: Total parathyroidectomy (tPTX) and total parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation (tPTX + AT) are effective and inexpensive treatments for secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT), but we do not know which one is the optimal approach. Therefore, we undertook a meta-analysis to compare the safety and efficacy of these two surgical procedures. Methodology: Studies published in English on PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Library from inception to 27 September 2016 were searched systematically. Eligible studies comparing tPTX with tPTX + AT for sHPT were included and Review Manager v5.3 was used. Results: Eleven studies were included in this meta-analysis. Ten cohort studies and one randomized controlled trial (RCT) involving 1108 patients with sHPT were identified. There was no significant difference in the prevalence of surgical complications (relative risk [RR], 1.71; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.77–3.79; p = .19), all-cause mortality (RR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.33–1.39; p = .29), sHPT persistence (RR, 3.81; 95% CI, 0.56–25.95; p = .17) or symptomatic improvement (RR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.91–1.13; p = .79). tPTX could reduce the risk of sHPT recurrence (RR, 0.19; 95% CI, 0.09–0.41; p < .0001) and reoperation because of recurrence or persistence of sHPT (RR, 0.46; 95% CI 0.24–0.86; p = .01) compared with tPTX + AT. Simultaneously, tPTX increased the risk of hypoparathyroidism (RR, 2.63; 95% CI, 1.06–6.51; p = .04). Conclusions: We found tPTX and tPTX + AT to be useful methods for sHPT treatment. tPTX was superior for reducing the risk of sHPT recurrence and reoperation than tPTX + AT but, due to a lack of high statistical-power RCTs, comparative studies will be needed in the future.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION For patients with refractory secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), parathyroidectomy (PTX) has received increasing attention. However, evidence-based medicine shows that there is still controversy regarding surgical methods, efficacy, and safety. We retrospectively analyzed the process of diagnosis and treatment in one patient with severe SHPT and long-term chronic renal failure (CRF), so as to further improve the therapeutic effect. CASE PRESENTATION A 61-year-old female with SHPT and CRF manifested as no urine for 18 years, underwent PTX 4 times since September 2010, with satisfactory final recovery. The first operation involved resection of 3 parathyroid glands in the normal position; the second operation involved removal of an ectopic parathyroid gland, combined with parathyroid gland autotransplantation; the third operation was performed to resect suspected recurrent parathyroid gland; the fourth operation involved partial excision of the autotransplanted parathyroid glands. CONCLUSION Accurate preoperative localized diagnosis and optimal surgical approach play key roles in the prevention and treatment of SHPT; postoperative recurrence of SHPT caused by ectopic or autotransplanted parathyroid gland should receive more attention.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Secondary hyperparathyroidism is common in chronic kidney disease. Parathyroidectomy is indicated in refractory hyperparathyroidism when medical treatments and so the parathyroid hormone levels cannot be lowered to acceptable values without causing significant hyperphosphatemia or hypercalcemia. The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of total parathyroidectomy with subcutaneous forearm autotransplantation with total parathyroidectomy with intramuscular forearm autotransplantation. MATERIALS AND METHODS A single-center retrospective cohort study of total parathyroidectomy with forearm autotransplantation from January 2002 to February 2013 was performed. According to the surgical technique, patients were divided into an intramuscular group (Group 1) and a subcutaneous group (Group 2). 38 patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism were enrolled; 23 patients were subjected to total parathyroidectomy with parathyroid tissue replanting in the subcutaneous forearm of the upper nondominant limb, while 15 patients were subjected to replanting in the intramuscular seat. RESULTS A total of 38 patients (56 ± 13 years) were enrolled. In both groups, the preoperative iPTH value was markedly high, 1750 ± 619 pg/ml in the intramuscular autotransplantation group and 1527 ± 451 pg/ml in the subcutaneous autotransplantation group (p = 0.079). Transient hypoparathyroidism was shown in 7 patients, and 1 patient showed persistent hypoparathyroidism (p = 0.387). 2 patients showed persistent hyperparathyroidism (p = 0.816), and in 2 others was found recurrent hyperparathyroidism (p = 0.816); 3 of them underwent autograftectomy. The anterior compartment of the forearm nondominant limb was sacrificed in 1 case of intramuscular autotransplantation with functional arm deficit. CONCLUSIONS The efficacy and safety of parathyroid tissue autotransplantation in the subcutaneous forearm of the upper nondominant limb is confirmed with a good rate of tissue engraftment and with a comparable number of postsurgical transient and persistent hypoparathyroidism and hyperparathyroidism incidence in both techniques. Furthermore, this technique preserves arm functionality in the case of autograftectomy. Consequently, it is our opinion that total parathyroidectomy with subcutaneous forearm autotransplantation is currently the best choice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microwave ablation (MWA) is an effective treatment for severe secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), but it can also be used for mild-to-moderate secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). In this randomised, controlled study, the efficacy of MWA in the treatment of mild-to-moderate hyperparathyroidism is investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS We assessed outcomes 12 months after the randomisation of 28 patients with mild-to-moderate SHPT. The subjects received either MWA plus calcitriol or calcitriol alone. The primary end-points were the rate of achieving target levels of intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), changes in iPTH levels and the rate of patients developing severe SHPT. RESULTS Primary end points: the overall rates of achieving target levels of iPTH were comparable between the MWA and calcitriol alone groups (24% vs. 22%, p = 0.85). However, the rate of iPTH <150 pg/mL (lower limit of the target range) in the MWA group was higher than that in the calcitriol alone group (23% vs. 8%, p = 0.02). The mean iPTH level in the MWA group after MWA was lower than that in the calcitriol alone group (373.09 ± 322.31 vs. 552.28 ± 361.87 pg/mL, p < 0.001). There was a significant difference in the change in iPTH levels over time within the MWA group (p < 0.001) but not in the calcitriol alone group. Only one patient developed severe SHPT in the MWA group, while six patients in the calcitriol alone group developed severe SHPT (p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Compared with calcitriol alone, MWA plus calcitriol decreases iPTH levels and prevents the progression of mild-to-moderate SHPT.

Abstract
Background We have identified a cause of falsely elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels after total parathyroidectomy with forearm auto-transplantation (TPT-ATx). Our cases highlight the need to draw PTH samples remotely, away from forearm graft sites, to ensure accurate levels. Case presentations We report on four patients who were referred to our surgical team at an academic tertiary care center for what was perceived to be recurrent hyperparathyroidism 2–5 years following total parathyroidectomy with auto-transplantation. Further evaluation revealed highly discrepant results in these patients depending on where the blood was drawn, with spuriously high levels in blood drawn from the grafted arm (Range 337–3885 ng/l), and much lower levels when blood was drawn remotely away from the graft site (Range 9–242 ng/l). The difference in PTH level between the grafted forearm and remote site for these patients ranged between 328 and 3643 ng/l. Over the period these cases were accrued (2008–2012), 89 patients underwent TPT-ATx in our institution. Therefore, our case report series suggests that this phenomenon will be evident to a clinically important extent in at least 4% of patients. Conclusions One can acquire spuriously high PTH levels from grafted forearms, leading to the false diagnosis of recurrent hyperparathyroidism. We recommend PTH levels be drawn remotely from graft sites to ensure accurate systemic levels are reflected.

Abstract
Parathyroidectomy (PTx) and medical treatments are both recommended for reducing serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and curing secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), but their therapeutic effects on long-term mortality are not well-known. Thus, we aim to assess such therapeutic effect of PTx. Electronic literatures published on Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials in any language until 27 November 2015 were systematically searched. All literatures that compared outcomes (survival rate or mortality rate) between PTx-treated and medically-treated CKD patients with sHPT were included. Finally, 13 cohort studies involving 22053 patients were included. Data were extracted from all included literatures in a standard form. The outcomes of all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities were assessed using DerSimonian and Laird's random effects model. We find PTx-treated versus medically-treated patients had a 28% reduction in all-cause mortality and a 37% reduction in cardiovascular mortality. Thus, PTx versus medical treatments might reduce the risks of all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities in CKD patients with sHPT. Further studies with prospective and large-sample clinical trials are needed to find out the real effect of PTx and to assess whether mortality rates differ among patterns of PTx.
