This research examines the historical development and current strategies in the treatment of hyperparathyroidism.
Reviewed historical treatments and surgical techniques for hyperparathyroidism.
Analyzed the evolution of surgical strategies from bilateral cervical exploration to targeted approaches.
Evaluated the impact of new imaging techniques and intraoperative monitoring on surgical outcomes.
Bilateral cervical exploration was the traditional 'gold standard' with a 98-99% success rate.
Introduction of focused surgical techniques resulted in equivalent cure rates but reduced surgical trauma.
Mini-incision techniques have become the new preferred approach, minimizing pain and recovery time.

Niederle et al. (2026) studied this question.
