Neonatal primary hyperparathyroidism: total parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation of cryopreserved parathyroid tissue. 1986

P Lutz, and O Kane, and A Pfersdorff, and F Seiller, and P Sauvage, and J M Levy

Primary neonatal hyperparathyroidism is a life threatening disease because of severe hypercalcemia. The best therapy is early total parathyroidectomy which requires permanent replacement therapy. We describe the first case treated by total parathyroidectomy and late autotransplantation of cryopreserved parathyroid tissue. Twenty months after transplantation, serum calcium and phosphate levels are normal in the absence of any supplementary treatment.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006961 Hyperparathyroidism A condition of abnormally elevated output of PARATHYROID HORMONE (or PTH) triggering responses that increase blood CALCIUM. It is characterized by HYPERCALCEMIA and BONE RESORPTION, eventually leading to bone diseases. PRIMARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM is caused by parathyroid HYPERPLASIA or PARATHYROID NEOPLASMS. SECONDARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM is increased PTH secretion in response to HYPOCALCEMIA, usually caused by chronic KIDNEY DISEASES.
