Parathyroidectomy

Parathyroidectomy is a surgical procedure to treat hyperparathyroidism, characterized by excessive parathyroid hormone production leading to abnormal blood calcium levels. During this surgery, the affected parathyroid glands are removed through a neck incision. It's recommended when other treatments are ineffective or when a parathyroid tumor is present. After the procedure, patients may require calcium level monitoring and, in some cases, supplements. Consult a specialist like Dr. Randy Lehman at Liberty Clinic to discuss the procedure, evaluation, and personalized guidance for your condition.
