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

      • X-linked recessive hypoparathyroidism
        • Caused by mutation in gene variant FHL1 (exon 4, c.C283T, p.R95W) on chromosome locus Xq26-q27.[10]
  • Congenital multisystem syndromes
    • DiGeorge syndrome[11]
    • Autosomal dominant disorder
      • Presents with thymus dysfunction, cardiac diseases, immunodeficiency, hypocalcemia, and other clinical problems

    • Kenny-Caffey syndrome[13]
      • Autosomal recessive inheritence
      • Deletion of the TBCE gene responsible for encoding a protein that participates in beta-tubulin folding.
      • Presents with hypoparathyroidism due to absent parathyroid tissue, growth retardation, medullary stenosis of tubular bones)
    • Sanjad-Sakati syndrome[14]
      • Sanjad-Sakati syndrome in exclusively found in arabian descent popultion.
      • Autosomal recessive disorder

      • Presents with hypoparathyroidism, intellectual disability, dysmorphism
    • Barakat syndrome[15][16]
      • Autosomal recessive inheritance
      • Mutations in the GATA3 gene
      • Also known as hypoparathyroidism, deafness, and renal dysplasia (HDR) syndrome
      • Presents with primary hypoparathyroidism, nerve deafness, steroid-resistant nephrosis
    • Kearns-Sayre syndrome[17]
      • Mitochondrial inheritence
      • Presents with mitochondrial myopathy, ophthalmoplegia, retinal degeneration, cardiac conduction defects, primary hypoparathyroidism)
    • Pearson marrow pancreas syndrome[18]
