Abstract
In older patients, surgical treatment of PHPT is safe and feasible, with comparable outcomes to in younger patients, and helps prevent the development or progression of symptoms and complication. Hence, parathyroidectomy should be the recommended treatment and should be performed in PHPT patients as early as possible, regardless their age and initial symptoms.
