What should parathyroidectomy pay attention to

summary

My husband found out that he had kidney stones very early. Later, he was cured. When he went to the hospital for reexamination, he found that he had nodules in the parathyroid gland. The doctor asked him to have surgery. Otherwise, it would not be effective to rely on drug treatment. Now he has been cultivating at home after surgery. Today, let me talk to you about what parathyroidectomy should pay attention to.

What should parathyroidectomy pay attention to

Treatment 1: parathyroidectomy is usually partial or unilateral resection, so there is a chance of compensation after operation. If the compensation is not good after a period of time, it can only rely on exogenous calcium supplement and vitamin D. Attention to vitamin D is essential, otherwise a long time of calcium, calcium can not be well absorbed, will cause some parts of the body calcification, such as occurs in the brain, it will occur epilepsy and other adverse symptoms.

Treatment 2: PTH, blood calcium, blood phosphorus, urine calcium, urine phosphorus and B-ultrasound of both kidneys were tested regularly after operation. If the parathyroid gland is damaged due to surgery, calcium supplement alone will not go up. It is also necessary to supplement the specific usage of vitamin (active vitamin D, such as luogaiquan). You can improve the examination and then go to the endocrinology department for further treatment.

Treatment 3: undifferentiated thyroid cancer is highly malignant, the disease develops very rapidly, and it is easy to invade the surrounding organs and tissues, such as the trachea, esophagus, neck nerves and blood vessels. Therefore, it is often in the late stage when visiting a doctor, and can not be surgically removed. Only external radiotherapy and chemotherapy can be performed, and only when the trachea is compressed or blocked can thyroisthmus resection or tracheotomy be performed.
