    Parathyroid Surgeon Telangana Operating To Cure Hyperparathyroidism

    Parathyroid glands are located behind the thyroid gland in the front side of the neck. Parathyroid glands belong to the endocrine system. The main purpose of these glands is to maintain a proper ratio of calcium in the body, mainly in blood.

    There are four parathyroid glands in a human body. Normally they are the size of a rice grain but in some cases, they might be as big as peas. As thyroid gland which creates thyroid hormone to manipulate metabolism rate in the body, parathyroid gland creates parathyroid hormone to increase the level of calcium in the blood.

    Why Is Parathyroid Surgery Necessary?

    Parathyroid glands have one single purpose. They regulate the calcium level in the entire body so that the muscles and nervous system work properly. These glands measure the amount of calcium present in the blood every minute. If there is any deficiency then these glands create PTH or parathyroid hormone that goes to the bones for retrieving calcium from the calcium vaults of the bones and then channel them into the blood.

The name is given due to the focused and more limited approach of this operation. This is exactly why this is also known as the minimally invasive parathyroid surgery.
