Table 3 Influence of the number of parathyroid glands removed during operation on the successful PTX rate.

Groups	n	Successful PTX, n (%)	Persistent SHPT, n (%)
<4-glands group	26	15 (57.7)^*	11 (42.3)
4-glands group	81	73 (90.1)	8 (9.9)
>4-glands group	12	9 (75)^**	3 (25)
PTX – parathyroidectomy; SHPT – secondary hyperparathyroidism; ^* compared with 4-glands group, χ=14.175, ^** compared with 4-glands group, χ=1.071, =0.301 >0.05.
