Ninh Thuan General Hospital successfully performed surgery on a rare case of parathyroid tumor.

On October 20, the leader of Ninh Thuan General Hospital said that the hospital's medical team had just successfully performed surgery on patient NVC (46 years old, residing in Ca Na commune) with parathyroid adenoma - a rare endocrine disease that can cause calcium metabolism disorders and seriously affect health if not intervened early.

Surgeons remove the tumor from the patient.

Accordingly, about 6 years ago, during a general examination, patient C. was diagnosed with thyroid problems and was prescribed regular health monitoring. Recently, patient C. visited Ninh Thuan General Hospital. Through paraclinical tests, the doctor discovered a suspected tumor originating from the parathyroid gland - a location with many important blood vessel and nerve structures in the neck area. Immediately after that, the patient was prescribed tumor removal surgery; the surgery was performed by the General Surgery Department team. The doctors meticulously removed the tumor, minimizing bleeding and avoiding tumor rupture; at the same time, preserving the vocal cords as much as possible, helping the patient not to have a hoarse voice after surgery. The removed tumor was about 2 x 1.5 cm in size.

After tumor removal, the patient's health recovered completely.

After surgery, the patient's health was stable, his activities were normal, there were no signs of hoarseness or post-operative complications. Specialist II Doctor Do Quyen - Deputy Head of the Department of General Surgery, Ninh Thuan General Hospital said: Parathyroid adenoma is a rare endocrine disease, often difficult to diagnose because it is easily confused with other neck tumors. The disease can cause calcium metabolism disorders in the body, affecting the bones and nervous system. Early detection and timely treatment play an important role, helping patients recover quickly and minimizing dangerous complications.
