Popis: Purpose: Minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) is the recommended treatment in primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) for which accurate preoperative localization is essential. The current imaging standard consists of cervical ultrasonography (cUS) and MIBI-SPECT/CT. 11C-MET PET/CT has a higher resolution than MIBI-SPECT/CT. The aim of this study was to determine the diagnostic performance of 11CMET PET/CT after initial inconclusive or negative localization. Methods: We performed a retrospective single center cohort study of patients with pHPT undergoing parathyroid surgery after prior negative imaging and later localization by means of 11C-MET PET/CT between 2006 and 2014. Preoperative localization by 11C-MET PET/CT was compared with later surgical localization, intraoperative quick PTH (IOPTH), duration of surgery, histopathology, and follow-up data. Also, differences in duration of surgery between the groups with and without correct preoperative localization were analyzed. Results: In 18/28 included patients a positive 11C-MET-PET/CT result corresponded to the surgical localized adenoma (64%). In 3/28 patients imaging was false positive and no adenoma was found. In 7/28 patients imaging was false negative at the side of the surgically identified adenoma. Sensitivity of 11C-MET PET/ CT was 72% (18/25). Duration of surgery of correctly localized patients was significantly shorter compared to falsely negative localized patients (p = 0.045). Conclusion: In an intention to treat 11C-MET-PET/CT correctly localized the parathyroid adenoma in 18/28 (64%) patients, after previous negative imaging. A preoperatively correct localized adenoma leads to a more focused surgical approach (MIP) potentially reducing duration of surgery and potentially healthcare costs.
