Classification

Classification of hyperparathyridism
Features Primary hyperparathyroidism Secondary hyperparathyroidism Tertiary hyperparathyroidism
Pathology Hyperfunction of parathyroid cells due to hyperplasia, adenoma or carcinoma. Physiological stimulation of parathyroid in response to hypocalcaemia. Following long term physiological stimulation leading to hyperplasia.
Cause
Associations May be associated with multiple endocrine neoplasia. Usually due to chronic renal failure or other causes of Vitamin D deficiency. Seen in chronic renal failure.
Serum calcium High Low/Normal High
Serum phosphate Low/Normal High High
Management Usually surgery if symptomatic. Cincacalcet can be considered in those not fit for surgery. Treatment of underlying cause. Usually cinacalcet or surgery in those that don't respond.

Causes

Overview

Hyperparathyroidism is caused by an increase in concentration of parathyroid hormone in serum. There are three type of hyperparathyroidism including primary, secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism. The are an array of different causes for all types of hyperparathyroidism.

Causes of Primary hyperparathyroidism

Causes of primary hyperparathyroidism are as follows:

Common causes

  • Parathyroid adenoma
    • Usually single gland affected
    • Sometimes multiple gland affected

Less common causes

  • Parathyroid hyperplasia
  • Parathyroid carcinoma
  • Familial isloated hyperparathyroidism
  • Radiation exposure (due to development of parathyroid adenoma or parathyroid hyperplasia)[1][2][3]
  • Celiac disease[4][5]

Genetic causes

  • HRPT2 gene mutations:[6]
    • HRPT2 gene code for parafibromin protein.
    • HRPT2 gene mutations are found in a type of familial hyperparathyroidism, hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor (HPT-JT) syndrome.
    • HRTP2 gene mutations increases risk of parathyroid carcinoma.
  • Cyclin D1 gene (CCND1)/PRAD1 gene:[7][8]
    • PRAD1 (parathyroid adenoma 1) is a protooncogene located on chromosome 11q13.
    • Cyclin D1 gene translocation and oncogene action observerd in 8% of adenomas
    • Cyclin D1 gene overexpression is pbserved in 20% to 40% of parathyroid adenomas
  • MEN1 gene:[7][9]
    • MEN1 is a tumor supressor gene on chronosome 11q13.
    • Somatic loss of single MEN1 allele is observed in 25% to 40% of sporadic parathyroid adenomas.

Causes of secondary hyperparathyroidism

Causes of secondary hyperparathyroidism are as follows:

Common causes

  • Chronic renal failure (leading to parathyroid hyperplasia)[10]
  • Vitamin D deficiency[11]

Less common causes

  • Severe calcium deficiency[12]
  • Gastric bypass surgery, particularly roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP)[13]
  • Malabsorption syndrome[14]

Causes of tertiary hyperparathyroidism

Causes of tertiary hyperparathyroidism are as follows:

Common causes

  • Chronic renal failure (leading to parathyroid hyperplasia)
  • Renal transplant patients[15]

Less common cause

  • Long standing celiac disease[4]


Pathogenesis

Associated conditions

  • Hypercalcemia
  • Chronic renal failure
  • Osteitis fibrous cystica
  • Osteoporosis
  • Osteomalacia
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Brown tumor
  • Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1, type 2A, and type 4
  • Familial isolated hyperparathyroidism
  • Neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism
  • Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia
  • Hyperparathyroid-jaw tumor syndrome
  • Pancreatitis[16]

Natural history, Prognosis and Complications

  • Primary hyperparathyroidism usually develops in the fifth decade of life, in post-menopausal women and starts as asymptomatic hypercalcemia in presence of increased parathyroid hormone.
  • If left untreated, some of patients with hyperparathyroidism may develop marked hypercalcemia, marked hypercalciuria, cortical bone demineralization and nephrolithiasis.
  • These complications resolves after the treatment.
