Sestamibi Scan Misinterpreted by Inexperienced Surgeon, Leading to Unsuccessful Parathyroid Surgery

Interesting Re-Operative Parathyroid Case of the Week with Dr. Mitchell Today's patient is a 71-year-old whose imaging studies were misinterpreted, leading to an unsuccessful parathyroid surgery. Her initial surgeons removed two normal parathyroid glands and unsurprisingly, she was not cured of her parathyroid disease. She contacted us at the Norman Parathyroid Center and after hearing the details, I suspected right away that the imaging was misinterpreted and her parathyroid adenoma was not removed. We see this issue all the time. Check out the full video to learn more details about this patient's case, learn why her initial surgery was not successful, see her imaging before surgery, and hear how she is doing now. This case underscores the importance of selecting an experienced, high-volume parathyroid surgeon the first time. This second surgery could have been avoided if she had found us sooner.
