She underwent three extensive operations for her parathyroid disease, but unfortunately no parathyroid glands were identified during any of these surgeries due to her surgeon's lack of experience. Luckily, she found our center a few years ago and Dr. Norman was able to identify and remove her parathyroid adenoma. Her symptoms resolved and she was feeling great! In an incredible stroke of bad luck, this patient was part of the extremely small percentage that have a recurrence. This means they develop another parathyroid tumor on a different parathyroid gland. She came back to our center and Dr. Mitchell was able to successfully remove the second parathyroid adenoma. Check out the full video to learn more details about this patient's case, why her initial surgeries were 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. Her first three operations could have been avoided if she had found us sooner.

Description: What are Parathyroid Glands? Parathyroid glands are four small glands of the endocrine system that regulate the calcium in our bodies. Parathyroid glands are located in the neck behind the thyroid where they continuously monitor and regulate blood calcium levels. What do Parathyroid Glands do? Parathyroid glands control the calcium levels in our blood, in our bones, and throughout our body. Parathyroid glands regulate the calcium by producing a hormone called Parathyroid Hormone (PTH). Calcium is the most important element in our bodies (we use it to control many organ systems), so calcium is regulated more carefully than any other element. In fact, calcium is the only element with its own regulatory system -- the parathyroid glands.
