Pediatric parathyroid disease

Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 2020
Parathyroid glands are critical for calcium and phosphate homeostasis. Parathyroid disease is relatively rare in the pediatric population, but there are some important pediatric-specific considerations and conditions. This article reviews parathyroid physiology, disorders of hyper- and hypo- function, operative management, and uniquely pediatric ...

Parathyroid Disease

2023
Abstract Parathyroid disease is due to overproduction or underproduction of parathyroid hormone by the chief cells of the parathyroid gland. Parathyroid hormone plays an important part in control of calcium levels. Hyperparathyroidism, or elevated parathyroid hormone levels, can have signs and symptoms of hypercalcemia, such as ...

Parathyroid Diseases

Clinical Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2019
Although uncommon in pregnancy, parathyroid dysfunction may produce significant perinatal and maternal morbidity and mortality. The prevalence of hyperparathyroidism is 0.5%. The most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism in pregnancy is a single parathyroid adenoma, which is present in nearly 80% of cases.

The molecular biology of parathyroid disease

World Journal of Surgery, 1991
AbstractAdvances in molecular genetics have shed important new light on the understanding of the basis for human tumors. The application of these methods has allowed for characterization of endocrine neoplasms at a level of resolution that was not previously possible.

Psychiatric Aspects of Parathyroid Disease

Psychosomatics, 1999
Parathyroid diseases can present with psychiatric symptoms and can be recognized through determinations of serum electrolytes, especially the calcium level. Psychiatric evaluations should include a serum calcium concentration test, which is also essential in reassessment of patients poorly responsive to mental illness treatment.

Thyroid and parathyroid disease in children

Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 2006
Although diseases of the thyroid and parathyroid glands are relatively uncommon in children, the implications of missed diagnoses can be severe. This review describes the embryology, anatomy, and physiology of the thyroid and parathyroid glands, and focuses on significant benign and malignant pathologies of these glands.

Autoimmune Parathyroid Disease

2008
The chapter takes into consideration the clinical manifestations, genetic patterns, histopathology, animal models, cellular immunity, circulating autoantibodies, target autoantigens, laboratory diagnostic criteria, and the therapy of the autoimmune parathyroid diseases. Much of these data satisfy the criteria for autoimmune diseases.

Metabolic Syndrome in Parathyroid Diseases

2018
Parathyroid glands are the main regulator of body mineral metabolism through parathormone (PTH) actions on bone and kidney. Experimental evidence suggests that PTH may have non-classical target organs such as adipose tissue, arterial vascular wall, cardiac muscle cells, and adrenal cortex cells, where it may play a role in controlling body energy ...

Historical perspective of parathyroid disease

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2004
This article highlights key historical developments in the understanding of parathyroid function and disease, a story that involves many clinical investigators and classic scientific debate. The current medical community is certainly indebted to the innate curiosity and perseverance of these historical figures.
