[Indications and results of parathyroidectomy in the treatment of hyperparathyroidism in dialyzed and kidney transplant patients. Apropos of 68 cases].

Between 1972 and 1985, 78 parathyroidectomies were performed in 60 patients under chronic haemodialysis and in 6 recipients of renal transplants. These patients had severe hyperparathyroidism and radiological evidence of fibrous osteitis. This series shows a recrudescence of tertiary hyperparathyroidism in renal transplant recipients under ciclosporin. The post-operative course was favourable in 55 cases; 13 patients had to be reoperated upon, revealing the presence of supernumerary glands in 6 of them.
