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 (2nd most common cause)[2]
    • Polyglandular autoimmune syndrome type 1
      • Also known as autoimmune polyendocrinopathy-candidiasis-ectodermal dystrophy or APECED), or acquired hypoparathyroidism associated with autoimmune hypothyroidism
    • Isolated autoimmune hypoparathyroidism

Less Common Causes

  • Infiltration and/or destruction of parathyroid glands
    • Metal overload
      • Iron overload
        • Hemochromatosis
        • Thalassemia (due to repeated blood transfusion)
      • Copper overload
        • Wilson's disease
      • Aluminium deposition
        • Usually seen in patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis
      • Hypermagnesemia
    • Radiation-induced destruction parathyroid glands
    • Hypomagnesemia (reversible)
    • Metastatic disease
    • Granulomatous disease

    • Pearson marrow pancreas syndrome[18]
      • Mitochondrial inheritence
      • Presents with lactic acidosis, neutropenia, sideroblastic anemia, pancreatic exocrine dysfunction, and hypoparathyroidism
    • Mitochondrial encephalopathy

Symptoms

  • Clinical symptoms depends on two features:[19]
    • Acuteness of hypocalcemia
    • The absolute level of serum calcium
  • Patients presents dramatically and tends to have more symptoms if there is an acute drop in serum calcium compared to patients with chronic hypocalcemia.[20]

Common symptoms

Common symptoms of hypoparathyroidism include:[19][21]

  • Tetany (hallmark of acute hypocalcemia)
  • Paresthesia in fingertips, toes, perioral area
  • Carpopedal spasms
  • Circumoral numbness
  • Abdominal pain
  • Biliary colic
  • Dysphoria
  • Fatigue
  • Muscle cramps
  • Myoclonic jerks
  • New onset seizure due to hypocalcemia or worsening of seizures
  • Painful menstruation

Less common synptoms

Less common symptoms of hypoparathyroidism include:[19][21]

  • Cognitive impairment
  • Decreased concentration
  • Hoarseness (due to laryngospasm)
  • Neuromuscular irritability
  • Palpitations due cardiac dysarrhythmias
  • Personality disturbances and/or mood changes
  • Symptoms of acute cardiomyopathy
  • Wheezing and dyspnea (due to bronchospasm)
  • Electrocardiographic changes that mimic myocardial infarction, or congestive heart failure (decreased cardiac contractility is related to low serum calcium and possibly parathyroid hormone deficiency, as there are PTH receptors in cardiac myocytes).[22]


  • Cardiac manifestations
    • prolonged QT interval and T-wave alternans, , and congestive heart failure due to decreased cardiac contractility related to low serum calcium and possibly PTH deficiency, as there are PTH receptors in cardiac myocytes.
