Abstract

Background/aim: Several studies demonstrated that primary hyperparathyroidism is related to increased risk for cardiovasculardiseases (CVDs), and risk is decreased by parathyroidectomy. Epicardial fat thickness (EFT) has been postulated as a new marker ofCVD risk. We evaluated the impact of parathyroidectomy on EFT in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT).Materials and methods: Thirty-four PHPT patients (29 female, 5 male) and 28 age- and sex-matched controls (19 female, 9 male)were included in the study. Demographic, anthropometric, and biochemical data were recorded both before parathyroidectomy and 6months after the procedure. Epicardial fat thickness was measured by transthoracic echocardiography.Results: Mean age was 53.15 ± 8.44 years. Mean preoperative EFT was higher than mean EFT in the control group (0.49 ± 0.07 cmto 0.46 ± 0.08 cm, P: 0.0005), and EFT decreased after parathyroidectomy (0.49 ± 0.07 cm to 0.44 ± 0.08 cm, P: 0.0005). Systolicblood pressure and calcium, parathormone, and hsCRP levels decreased after parathyroidectomy (P 0.05). Preoperatively, EFT was correlated with SBP (r: 0.360, P: 0.0285)and age (r: 0.466, P: 0.0036). Multiple linear regression used to identify independent predictors of change in epicardial fat did not findany predictor of change in epicardial fat (P > 0.05).Conclusion: EFT was decreased by parathyroidectomy in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism. However, the decrease in EFTwas not correlated with any of the cardiovascular risk factors. More comprehensive studies evaluating the potential relation betweenPHPT and EFT need to be conducted.
