Abstract: We reported that aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) ratio of a tissue suspension can precisely differentiate normal and hyperfunctioning parathyroid tissue (PT) from other tissues. However, in these studies, LDH and AST were measured using… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00268-021-06101-8
Abstract: Intraoperative methods to confirm the presence of parathyroid tissue can optimize outcomes for patients undergoing surgery for hyperparathyroidism as well as help prevent total thyroidectomy-induced hypoparathyroidism by guiding parathyroid autotransplantation. Several adjuncts for intraoperative confirmation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/1553350618814078
Abstract: Background. Frozen section is the standard method to histologically distinguish parathyroid tissue from thyroid tissue during endocrine neck surgery. Frozen section can be time-consuming and costly. Its drawback is that it is to be performed… read more here.
