In this study, our aim was to study the efficiency of gamma probe guided minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (GP-MIP), conducted without the intra-operative quick parathyroid hormone (QPTH) measurement in the cases of solitary parathyroid adenomas (SPA) detected with USG and dual phase 99mTc-MIBI parathyroid scintigraphy (PS) in the preoperative period.
