Original Title: Criopreservación de las glándulas paratiroideas para autotrasplante diferido en el manejo quirúrgico del hiperparatiroidismo
Authors' recommendations: CONCLUSIONS Very low quality evidence does not allow determining the usefulness of deferred parathyroid autograft with cryopreserved tissue for the surgical management of hyperparathyroidism. One clinical practice guideline mentions it as an option to ensure parathyroid function post-parathyroidectomy and a consensus of experts uses it in case of reoperation due to persistent or recurrent hyperparathyroidism. The private and public national and international health sponsors consulted do not make reference to this technology with the exception of a private United State health sponsor who considers it as investigational and does not cover it. Its usefulness is limited by the low incidence of postoperative persistent hypocalcemia and the high cost involving the procedure and maintenance of the cryopreserved tissue.
