Original Source: 25-hydroxy vitamin D deficiency causes parathyroid incidentalomas.
PURPOSE: 25-OH D3 (D3) deficiency causes secondary hyperparathyroidism. Asymmetric gland hypertrophy may also lead to unnecessary parathyroid gland resection by mistaking these glands for parathyroid incidentalomas. We tested the hypothesis that D3 deficiency causes parathyroid gland hypertrophy. METHOD: This is a prospective study of 100 consecutive patients undergoing total thyroidectomy. Pre-operative D3 measurement was made at first presentation and on the day after surgery. During thyroidectomy, the pa...
