Persistent elevated serum levels of intact parathyroid hormone after reoperation for primary hyperparathyroidism and after pamidronate therapy.
Primary hyperparathyroidism is a life-threatening rare disorder. It is seen as a result of neonatal primary hyperparathyroidism, familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia, increased vitamin D levels and inactivation of calcium sensing receptor mutations. The clinical findings are hypotonia, bone demineralization, hypercalcemia and parathyroid hyperplasia. We present a six-month-old female patient, t...
متن کاملImmunologic Differentiation of Primary Hyperparathyroidism from Hyperparathyroidism
A B S T R A C T Serum immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (IPTH) was measured by radioimmunoassay in 54 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and in 18 consecutive patients with ectopic hyperparathyroidism due to nonparathyroid cancer without apparent skeletal metastasis. Although serum calcium concentration was higher in the group with ectopic hyperparathyroidism, serum IPTH was lower (rank...
متن کاملPrimary Hyperparathyroidism: An Overview
Primary hyperparathyroidism is a common condition that affects 0.3% of the general population. Primary and tertiary care specialists can encounter patients with primary hyperparathyroidism, and prompt recognition and treatment can greatly reduce morbidity and mortality from this disease. In this paper we will review the basic physiology of calcium homeostasis and then consider genetic associati...
متن کاملNormocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism.
Primary hyperparathyroidism, a common endocrine disorder, is traditionally defined by hypercalcemia and elevated levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH). A newer presentation of primary hyperparathyroidism has been described over the past decade, in which PTH is elevated but serum calcium is consistently normal, in the absence of secondary causes of hyperparathyroidism, such as renal disease or vit...
متن کاملAsymptomatic primary hyperparathyroidism.
The clinical profile of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) as it is seen in the United States and most Western countries has evolved significantly over the past half century. The introduction of the multichannel serum autoanalyzer in the 1970s led to the recognition of a cohort of individuals with asymptomatic hypercalcemia, in whom evaluation led to the diagnosis of PHPT. The term "asymptomati...
