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

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1971
The cases of 60 patients who underwent parathyroidectomy are described. Past, present and future aspects of the diagnosis of hyperparathyroidism, are discussed. In several patients in the series renal calculi had been present for over 20 years before the diagnosis was made. The reasons for this delay are considered.

Orthopaedic Nursing, 1994
Primary hyperparathyroidism is the most common cause of hypercalcemia seen in the outpatient setting (Bilezikian, 1992). Skeletal involvement is evident in most patients, even in the vast majority who show no symptoms. Bone histomorphometric studies reveal that the greatest bone diminution occurs in the radial shaft, the femoral neck is intermediate ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
