Disorders of calcium and phosphorus metabolism after successful kidney transplantation. 1983

A Ulmann, and N Chkoff, and B Lacour

Systematic study undertaken of 44 transplant patients with plasma creatinine below 0.11 mmol/L indicated renal phosphorus leak in approximately two-thirds of them and increased plasma PTH in all but one. Plasma 1,25(OH)2D was elevated in half the patients in whom it was measured. The lack of correlation found between plasma 1,25(OH)2D and plasma PTH or phosphorus probably indicates tubular lesions resulting in decreased production of 1,25(OH)2D. A phosphorus restriction test in 12 hypophosphatemic patients demonstrated that the reduced renal phosphorus reabsorption probably was due to both persisting hyperparathyroidism and a PTH-independent phosphorus leak.

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
