The effect of successful parathyroid surgery on left ventricle function in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism evaluated with strain echocardiography.

Despite normal 2D echocardiography data, it was determined that the GLS values deteriorated preoperatively and improved by the 6th postoperative month. The detection of early disorders in PHP that cannot be detected on 2D echocardiography, even in asymptomatic patients, may suggest a new treatment indication. For asymptomatic PHP patients, strain echocardiography may be more valuable than 2D echocardiographic evaluation to determine myocardial dysfunction. The recent literature is insufficient, and there is a need for further, more extensive studies with longer follow-up periods.
