Parathyroid Treatment
Surgery is the only way to treat parathyroid disease (hyperparathyroidism). There are no medications or pills that cure primary hyperparathyroidism. The parathyroid tumor or overactive parathyroid glands must be removed by a surgeon. Up to 35% of people will need more than one gland removed, so the surgeon should examine all four glands. As soon as the parathyroid tumosr have been removed, the patient is cured! It is very likely this will change your life. If you have primary hyperparathyroidism you should have parathyroid surgery. If you have an expert surgeon this operation should be very easy.
The ‘standard parathyroid operation’ is the old way of performing parathyroid surgery. A large incision is made in the neck, the muscles of the neck are retracted sideways and the thyroid gland is loosened up and moved aside to allow the surgeon to identify the four parathyroid glands which reside moderately deep in the neck behind the thyroid.
What Are the Causes of Hyperparathyroidism?
In hyperparathyroidism, one or more of your parathyroid glands becomes overactive and makes excess PTH. This could be due to a tumor, gland enlargement, or other structural problems of the parathyroid glands.
When your calcium levels are too low, your parathyroid glands respond by increasing the production of PTH. This causes your kidneys and intestines to absorb a larger amount of calcium. It also removes more calcium from your bones. PTH production returns to normal when your calcium level goes up again.
What Are the Symptoms of Hyperparathyroidism?
Symptoms can vary from mild to severe, depending on your type of hyperparathyroidism.

FAQ’s
Yes. All surgery causes scarring, and how the patient heals the scar is very much dependent on the individual. However, there are some techniques that surgeons use to minimize scarring. These techniques include: smaller incision size, careful incision placement, and hypoallergenic suture material (to avoid inflammation). New York Parathyroid Center surgeons make every effort to place the incision in a natural skin line, which acts like camouflage. The incision will blend into the skin line and once the redness fades away it is essentially invisible. As a general rule, you should not have a noticeable scar after six months.

After my difficult c section, I developed a hernia, I was really scared. My gyne sends me to Dr. Abhijit. It was a great decision to go with him. He done laparoscopy. My experience of surgery was exactly the same as what he told me before. He is a perfectionist surgeon.
Dr. Abhijit Gotkhinde sir operated my father for piles using a laser technique. Initially, we were quite anxious but after discussing with him about the procedure we felt confident. Surgery was done in less than 30 min & it was absolutely pain-free. He recovered in a single day. Within 1 week he is ready to work. Now we are thinking we would have done the procedure prior only. I must say, Dr. Gotkhinde is the best laser surgeon for piles.
