Primary hyperparathyroidism is not rare. It is particularly common after the age of 50 and may affect up to 3% of postmenopausal women. It is commonly found as a result of blood tests performed for other reasons and is therefore often asymptomatic. Surgical treatment is recommended for patients with renal stone disease, plasma calcium above 3 mmol/L ...

Primary hyperparathyroidism is the most common cause of hypercalcemia in the outpatient setting. Phenotypically, it has evolved from a disease of overt symptomatology to one of vague complaints and biochemical diagnosis. Preoperative localization and intraoperative parathyroid hormone have revolutionized the surgical management of these patients ...

Abstract Primary hyperparathyroidism is no longer the severe disorder of ‘stones, bones, and groans’ described by Fuller Albright and others in the 1930s (1,2). Osteitis fibrosa cystica, with its brown tumours of the long bones, subperiosteal bone resorption, distal tapering of the clavicles and phalanges, and ‘salt-and-pepper ...

Current Opinion in Oncology, 2004
This contribution presents research progress concerning primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT), and the background for recent notable changes in treatment policy.Research has clarified that most patients with pHPT require surgery due to risk for osteoporosis, renal stones, and possibly silent complications of renal impairment, cardiovascular disease, and ...

Primary hyperparathyroidism: Hyperparathyroid crisis
The American Journal of Surgery, 1981Hyperparathyroid crisis is a rare disease but should be suspected in acutely ill patients complaining of weakness, lethargy, nausea, vomiting, confusion and abdominal pain. Despite the variety of clinical manifestations, the syndrome forms a distinctive pattern which, in the presence of a serum calcium level greater than 16 mg/100 ml, should be ...

Genetics of Primary Hyperparathyroidism
Urologia Internationalis, 2004Primary hyperparathyroidism, a genetically heterogeneous disease, usually occurs as a sporadic disorder due to the presence of parathyroid adenoma/s, hyperplasia or, rarely, carcinoma. In the last decades familial forms of primary hyperparathyroidism have been described.

Supplement on Primary Hyperparathyroidism
Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 2013Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a relatively common endocrine disorder that has evolved from a symptomatic hypercalcemic disorder associated with overt skeletal and renal complications to a condition that is now recognized at an earlier asymptomatic stage.

Current Treatment Options in Oncology, 2001
Treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism depends on a clear diagnosis based on biochemical confirmation. Most patients have an elevated serum total or ionized calcium level in association with an elevated or inappropriate serum intact parathyroid hormone level. The serum calcium level can be lowered by hydration and by a variety of pharmacologic agents.
