In this two-part series, we come to you LIVE! from the 2023 Annual meeting of the American Association of Endocrine Surgeons in Birmingham, Alabama. If you think evaluating and managing patients with primary hyperparathyroidism is difficult, patients with secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism can be even more difficult to evaluate and manage. Join Drs. Barb Miller, Sophie Dream, Jessica Liu McMullin, and Herb Chen as they break down the controversies and complexities associated with evaluation and management of these patients and discuss the recently published AAES guidelines on the definitive surgical management of patients with secondary and tertiary renal hyperparathyroidism. Part 1 focuses on the impetus for creation of these guidelines, the differences in evaluation and indication for surgery when seeing patients with renally mediated hyperparathyroidism, and preoperative planning. Part 2 focuses on intraoperative and postoperative management, parathyroid autotransplantation, and renal transplant recipients.
Hosts:
- Barbra S. Miller, MD (Moderator), Clinical Professor of Surgery, The Ohio State University, @OSUEndosurgBSM
- Sophie Dream, MD, Assistant Professor of Surgery, Medical College of Wisconsin, @SDreamMD,
- Jessica Liu McMullin, MD, Endocrine Surgery Fellow, University of Alabama – Birmingham, @jess_mcmullin
- Herbert Chen, MD, Professor and Chair of Surgery, University of Alabama – Birmingham, @herbchen
Learning objectives:
- Understand the epidemiology and pathogenesis of kidney-related parathyroid disease and how these entities differ from primary hyperparathyroidism
- Describe the diagnosis of kidney-related hyperparathyroidism and its different presentations
- Define the indications for surgical intervention
- Recognize the different approaches and extents of surgery for treating the different types of renally mediated hyperparathyroidism including thymectomy and parathyroid autotransplantation
- Detail methods for safe and effective perioperative management
