To the Editor, Although parathyroid carcinoma is a rare cause of hyperparathyroidism, it must be included in the differential diagnosis of parathyroid hormone (PTH)-mediated hypercalcemia and hyperparathyroid crisis, which is defined as a syndrome characterized by a serum calcium level > 14 mg/dL from a marked elevation of PTH, with severe signs and symptoms of hypercalcemia that are reversible...
متن کاملA Parathyroid Adenoma: Benign Disease Presenting with Hyperparathyroid Crisis
Hyperparathyroid crisis is a rare manifestation of parathyroid disease. We present the case of a 53-year-old gentleman with a review of the current literature. He presented in acute renal failure with epigastric pain and vomiting. His serum-corrected calcium (CCa(2+)) was raised at 5.2 mmol/L, in addition to a massively raised parathyroid hormone (PTH) level (3957 ng/L). Ultrasound studies of t...
متن کاملOsteomalacia and hyperparathyroid bone disease in patients with nephrotic syndrome.
Patients with nephrotic syndrome have low blood levels of 25 hydroxyvitamin D (25-OH-D) most probably because of losses in urine, and a vitamin D-deficient state may ensue. The biological consequences of this phenomenon on target organs of vitamin D are not known. This study evaluates one of these target organs, the bone. Because renal failure is associated with bone disease, we studied six pat...

The surface electrocardiogram (ECG) has been used as a useful method for detection of metabolic disturbances for a long time. However, it may be difficult to distinguish the exact disturbance when more than one metabolic abnormality exists in a patient simultaneously. Although, "classic" ECG characterizations of common electrolyte disturbances are well described, multiple concurrent electrolyte...
