Medicina Clínica (English Edition), 2018 Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a common endocrinological process, characterized by chronic elevation of serum concentrations of calcium and parathyroid hormone (PTH). Many years ago, the most frequent forms of clinical presentation were symptomatic renal or skeletal disease with moderate or severe hypercalcemia; however, currently, most patients

Primary Hyperparathyroidism [PDF]
Endocrine Practice, 1989 Abstract Primary hyperparathyroidism is a common endocrine disease characterized by excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone from one or more of the four parathyroid glands. In most patients, a single, benign adenoma is responsible for the disease, but in a small percentage of subjects, four-gland hyperplasia is evident.

Primary hyperparathyroidism [PDF]
Turkish Journal of Surgery, 2016 Primary hyperparathyroidism is a common endocrine disorder caused by overactivation of parathyroid glands resulting in excessive release of parathyroid hormone. The resultant hypercalcemia leads to a myriad of symptoms. Primary hyperparathyroidism may increase a patient's morbidity and even mortality if left untreated.
