Surgical management of renal hyperparathyroidism with total parathyroidectomy, autotransplantation, and cryopreservation with deferred autotransplantation: A 13-year experience

Abstract

Secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) require complex management. Surgical intervention aims to reduce parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels in CKD patients, thereby preventing complications associated with hyperparathyroidism (HPT). We describe our 13-year experience in the surgical management of secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism in pediatric patients, including total or subtotal parathyroidectomy, autoimplantation, cryopreservation, and deferred autoimplantation.
