Overview

The diagnosis of pseudohypoparathyroidism is made by measurement of variations in serum calcium, phosphorus, cAMP and calcitriol and in urinary cAMP and phosphorus excretion helps in assessment of skeletal and renal responsiveness to parathyroid hormone.

Laboratory Findings

  • Immunoradiometric assay (IRMA) can be used to measure serum parathyroid hormone concentration.[1]
