Abstract
BACKGROUND: There is limited experience in managing pediatric primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). The aim of this study was to analyze the clinical presentation and outcome of surgery in children with PHPT managed at a tertiary referral center.
METHODS: This retrospective study (September 1989-August 2019) consisted of 35 pediatric PHPT patients (< 18 years) who underwent parathyroidectomy. Clinico-pathologic profile and outcome were noted.
RESULTS: The mean age of cohort was 15.2±2.9 years and girls outnumbered boys (M:F = 1:1.9). Familial and symptomatic disease was noted in 8.5 and 94.3% cases, respectively. Skeletal manifestations (83%) were the commonest followed by renal (29%). Fifty-four percent children had skeletal fractures, and 23% were bed-ridden. Among rare manifestations, hypercalcemic crisis, recurrent pancreatitis and stigmata of rickets were observed in 2.8, 11.4 and 14.2% children, respectively. Mean calcium concentration was 12.1 ± 2.0 mg/dl and PTH 91.8 ± 66.5 pmol/L. The sensitivity of preoperative imaging in parathyroid localization was 91.4%. Minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) was performed in 40% cases. Parathyroid adenoma was observed in 91.4% patients, whereas remaining had hyperplasia. Thirty-four percent suffered from Hungry bone syndrome in postoperative period. The cure rate following primary surgery was 97%. One child with persistent PHPT had s uccessful re-operation. Median follow-up was 5 (1-17) years, and no recurrence or familial disease was revealed during this period.
CONCLUSION: Majority of pediatric patients present with symptomatic PHPT. Despite relatively high incidence of familial disease select pediatric patients can undergo successful MIP.
