Hyperparathyreosis is one of the diseases whose incidence has been increasing. Vast majority of hyperparathyreosis (about 80 %) is made

up by adenomas. Carcinoma of parathyroid glands is very rare. Ultrasonography, scintigraphy, most frequently 99mTc-MIBI and CT are

standardly being used for localization of the adenomas of parathyorid glands. Operation is a standard medical method in the process

of determinating the diagnosis of primary hyperparathyreosis. Peroperative ultrasonography has irreplaceable position. 21 patients

with diagnosis of adenoma of parathyroid glands which was histologically confirmed in 19 patiens have been operated in our workplace

during three years. Our small aggregate of operated patients shows success rate 90,5 %.
