Cardiovascular Morbidity in Patients Undergoing Successful Surgery for Primary Hyperparathyroidism.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Although previous studies have shown reduced cardiovascular events following parathyroidectomy (PTX), it is unclear whether this extends to contemporary patients diagnosed and treated with milder disease than previously. The aim of this nation-wide study was to determine the effect on cardiovascular events after PTX, and to comprehensively evaluate cardiovascular disease manifestations in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism, (pHPT).

Design

The cohort consisted of 5009 patients who underwent PTX and were identified from the Scandinavian Quality Register for Thyroid, Parathyroid and Adrenal Surgery. Patients were matched with 14,983 population controls.
