Persistent hyperparathyroidism affects renal outcomes and mortality. After kidney transplantation, cinacalcet is not approved as treatment for hyperparathyroidism. Parathyroidectomy, on the other hand, reverses electrolytes and mineral bone metabolism in

Serum parathyroid hormone levels and renal handling of phosphorus in patients with chronic renal disease [PDF]
In eight patients with advanced renal insufficiency (inulin clearance 1.4-9.1 ml/min), concentrations of serum calcium (S[Ca]) and phosphorus (S[P]) were maintained normal (S[Ca] > 9.0 mg/100 ml, (S[P] < 3.5 mg/100 ml) for at least 20 consecutive days ...

Comparison of total parathyroidectomy without autotransplantation and without thymectomy versus total parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation and with thymectomy for secondary hyperparathyroidism: TOPAR PILOT-Trial [PDF]
Background Secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT) is common in patients with chronic renal failure. Despite the initiation of new therapeutic agents, several patients will require parathyroidectomy (PTX).
