Understanding Low Motivation for Treatment in Primary Hyperparathyroidism: A Qualitative Study of Patients and Providers in the United States. [PDF]
Untreated PHPT represents a major health service failure driven in part by poor disease literacy and constrained primary care encounters. ABSTRACT Background Two thirds of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) go untreated, risking progressive osteoporosis, fractures, and nephrolithiasis.

Biochemistry in Symptomatic and Asymptomatic Primary Hyperparathyroidism: A Cross-Sectional Study
Background: PHPT can be symptomatic or asymptomatic, according to the presence of classic symptoms (skeletal or renal involvement), without conclusive evidence of its relation to biochemical parameters.

Primary Hyperparathyroidism [PDF]
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.

Normocalcemic Primary Hyperparathyroidism is not innocent as it sounds
INTRODUCTION: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is the most common cause of hypercalcemia. A group of patients who were admitted with PHPT and had normal calcium levels with high parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels was defined as normocalcemic PHPT (NPHPT).

Primary hyperparathyroidism [PDF]
In this Review, we describe the pathogenesis, diagnosis and management of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), with a focus on recent advances in the field. PHPT is a common endocrine disorder that is characterized by hypercalcaemia and elevated or inappropriately normal serum levels of parathyroid hormone.

Hypercalciuria and hyperparathyroidism — is there always a connection?
Hypercalciuria is a pathological condition characterized by an excess of daily calcium excretion. A high concentration of urine calcium can initiate stone formation. There are several types of hypercalciuria, each requires an individual approach.

European multicentre study on outcome of surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism
Some 5861 patients undergoing first‐time surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism were registered in the Eurocrine® database between 2015 and 2018. The use of intraoperative parathyroid hormone measurement decreased the risk of conversion and persistent hypercalcaemia.

This study investigated postoperative complications after surgery for medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) in Europe. Hypoparathyroidism, recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy and bleeding requiring reoperation occurred in 170 (26·2 per cent), 62 (13·7 per cent) and 17 (2·6 per cent) patients respectively.

Hyperparathyroidism-induced hypercalcemic crisis is a rare presentation of primary hyperparathyroidism. Primary hyperparathyroidism is caused by uncontrolled and immoderate secretion of parathyroid hormone.

Serum erythropoietin and erythropoiesis in primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism: effect of parathyroidectomy [PDF]
Primary as well as secondary hyperparathyroidism may be associated with anemia, and parathyroidectomy (PTx) may improve or even heal it. The precise link between the two conditions is still matter of discussion.
