"Parathyroid Tissues Anatomic Localizations Are Displaced Downward in Parathyroid Hyperplasia Cases"

• Conditions: Parathyroid Hyperplasia

• Registration Number: NCT02636075
• Lead Sponsor: SB Istanbul Education and Research Hospital

Brief Summary

This study investigates if Parathyroid Tissues Anatomic Localizations Are Displaced Downward in Parathyroid Hyperplasia Cases or not.

Detailed Description

Parathyroid tissues gets heavier when they become Hyperplasia. Because of this weight change, they change their normal anatomic positions. 125 patients who have been operated earlier will be included in the study.
