Résumé
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) during pregnancy can be responsible for serious maternal and foetal complications and should be treated by elective low-risk, minimally invasive surgery. Preoperative assessment of hyperfunctioning parathyroid glands is classically based on high-resolution neck ultrasound (US) and We report the case of a 4-month pregnant woman with severe primary hyperparathyroidism, in whom US failed to localize the abnormal parathyroid gland. In pregnant women with primary hyperparathyroidism, US alone may be sufficient when it localizes the abnormal parathyroid gland, allowing elective low-risk minimally invasive surgery. Otherwise, a multidisciplinary approach is mandatory to select the radiopharmaceutical that can be safely used to identify the hyperfunctioning parathyroid gland with minimal risks for the foetus.
