MINIINVASIVE TECHNIQUE IN THE CORRECTION OF SECONDARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM IN CRONIC RENAL DISEASE
The authors consider it useful to make local injections of ethanol or vitamin D analogues into the parathyroid glands under ultrasound control in order to correct mineral and bone disturbances in chronic renal disease. They describe their experience in using the local injections of ethanol and alfacalcidol into the parathyroid under ultrasound control in 12 patients with significant hyperparathyroidism.
