A retrospective case\-controlled study of 455 patients with sporadic pHPT undergoing minimally invasive parathyroidectomy with intraoperative iPTH assay at our institution in 2003\-2012 was undertaken. The primary outcome measure was postoperative pain. Secondary outcome measures were\: duration of surgery, recurrent laryngeal nerve identification rate, conversion rate, length of hospital stay, cure rate, patients’ satisfaction with cosmetic outcome, morbidity, costs, and diagnostic accuracy of intraoperative iPTH assay. Ad.3\). Data of 155 patients with pHPT qualified for bilateral neck exploration with intraoperative iPTH monitoring and treated in 2003 – 2012 were retrospectively analysed. All patients underwent biochemical and imaging testing in the preoperative work\-up. The following endpoints were analysed in this study\: indications for bilateral neck exploration, short\-term outcomes of surgery, and intraoperative iPTH monitoring added\-value. Results\: Ad.1\). The following diagnostic accuracy parameters of intraoperative iPTH assay were found for each of the tested criteria \(sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, accuracy\), respectively\: for Halle criterion 63.2%, 100.0%, 100.0%, 12.6%, 65.1%\; for Miami criterion 97.7%, 96.4%, 99.8%, 73.0%, 97.6%\; for Rome criterion 84.4%, 100.0%, 100.0%, 27.2%, 85.3%\; for Vienna cr"]
