AIM: In the context of presurgical localisation of parathyroid adenomas in primary hyper-parathyreoidism (pHPT) using (99m)Tc-sestamibi scintigraphy, subtraction- and dualphase technique are compared with each other and with the surgical findings.
PATIENTS, METHODS: Prospectively, 126 patients with pHPT were investigated presurgically. For visualisation of parathyroid adenomas, an image of the thyroid ((99m)Tc-pertechnetat) was subtracted from a perfusion image ((99m)Tc-sestamibi) and 2 h p. i. another image was acquired for identification of retention of activity. Considering both techniques the clinical findings were reported promptly. Retrospectively, the evaluations were presented separately to four experienced raters.
RESULTS: In clinical routine for 109 patients correct findings were reported presurgically (87%). From 129 resected parathyroid adenomas 118 were localised correctly (sensitivity 91%, positive predictive value 94%). Concerning the retrospective analysis, in 75% of the cases both techniques provided the correct site, in 14% only the dual-phase technique and in 7% only the subtraction-technique was correct. With the help of the dual-phase technique significantly more investigations were correctly rated than with the help of the subtraction technique (88.7 +/- 3.2% vs. 81.6 +/- 1.2%, p < 0.01, two-sided t-test).
CONCLUSION: The presurgical scintigraphic localisation of hyperactive parathyroid glands in pHPT assists minimal invasive surgery serving a high rate of correct findings. According to our data the dual-phase technique seems to be more sensitive than the subtraction technique. In some cases, however, the correct site may only be found using the subtraction technique. For an optimal surgical strategy we suggest the combination of both techniques.
