Transient neonatal hyperparathyroidism secondary to maternal pseudohypoparathyroidism.
نویسنده
چکیده
A neonate was found to have normocalcaemic hyperparathyroidism with bone disease. The plasma parathyroid hormone concentration returned to normal by 4 weeks, and healing of the bone lesions was evident by age 5 months. The mother proved to have pseudohypoparathyroidism, previously unsuspected.

A case of pseudohypoparathyroidism presenting as epilepsy with increased parathyroid hormone-like activity in urine.
Secondary hyperparathyroidism in pseudohypoparathyroidism was suggested by Kolb (1962) based mainly on bone X-ray findings characteristic to parathyroid hyperfunction such as subperiosteal resorption and osteitis fibrosa. We have recently experienced a case of typical pseudohypoparathyroidism in which the parathyroid hormone-like calcium-mobilizing activity in urine was increased, although bone...
متن کاملLate neonatal hypocalcemic tetany as a manifestation of unrecognized maternal primary hyperparathyroidism.
Maternal primary hyperparathyroidism causing hypercalcemia during pregnancy can suppress fetal and neonatal parathyroid hormone secretion. We report a newborn with transient hypoparathyroidism presented by hypocalcemic seizure and tetany on the 21st postnatal day in whom the final diagnosis was asymptomatic maternal primary hyperparathyroidism. Neonatal hypocalcemia usually occurs early in life...
متن کاملNeonatal hypocalcemia due to asymptomatic maternal primary hyperparathyroidism.
Neonatal hypocalcemia resulting from maternal primary hyperparathyroidism (MPH) is usually detected clinically in the first 2 weeks of life. Occasionally, diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism in a young asymptomatic mother is made when the infant presents with hypocalcemia. We present an infant with late onset hypocalcemia resulting from a combination of transient hypoparathyroidism due to ...
متن کاملTargeted deletion of the Nesp55 DMR defines another Gnas imprinting control region and provides a mouse model of autosomal dominant PHP-Ib.
Approximately 100 genes undergo genomic imprinting. Mutations in fewer than 10 imprinted genetic loci, including GNAS, are associated with complex human diseases that differ phenotypically based on the parent transmitting the mutation. Besides the ubiquitously expressed Gsalpha, which is of broad biological importance, GNAS gives rise to an antisense transcript and to several Gsalpha variants t...
متن کاملDistribution of circulating immunoreactive cbmponents of parathyroid hormone in normal subjects and in patients with primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism: the role of the kidney and of the serum calcium concentration
1. The distribution of intact parathyroid hormone-( 1-84) [PTH-( 1-84)] and of its COOHterminal fragments was determined in human serum by column chromatography. In addition to PTH-( 1-84) (peak I), COOH-terminal fragments having molecular weights of approximately 40007000 (peak 11) and immunoreactive components co-eluting with human PTH-( 1-12) (peak 111) were observed. 2. Mean concentrations ...
