Summary

The aim of the present study was to compare open minimal-invasive parathyroid surgery with video-assisted parathyroidectomy in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) patients with a positive sestamibi scan in a multicentre randomized trial in order to evaluate if videoassisted surgery gave less postoperative pain and if there was a difference in operating time.
