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

Common Causes

  • Post-surgical (Most common cause)[1]
  • Autoimmune
    • Polyglandular autoimmune syndrome

Less Common Causes

  • Infiltration and/or destruction of parathyroid glands
  • Genetic causes
