    The study involved 19 patients with hyperparathyroidism undergoing ultrasound-guided microwave ablation.

  • 2

    Serum intact parathyroid hormone and calcium levels decreased significantly by day 1 post-ablation.

  • 3

    Bone turnover markers, including PINP, showed significant increases by month 1 after microwave ablation.

  • 4

    C-reactive protein levels peaked at day 1 and decreased by month 1, indicating inflammatory response changes.

  • 5

    No severe hypocalcemia occurred, and two patients experienced transient hoarseness following the procedure.
