Ca/Cr: calcium/creatinine ratio; FHH: familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia; PTH: parathyroid hormone; CaSR: calcium-sensing receptor.
* If the patient is taking a thiazide diuretic or lithium, discontinue (if the drug can be stopped without exacerbating the underlying condition) and remeasure calcium and PTH in 3 months. Persistent hypercalcemia with elevated or high-normal PTH after drug withdrawal suggests that the drug has unmasked primary hyperparathyroidism.
¶ Refer to UpToDate content on treatment of vitamin D deficiency. Adequate total calcium (diet plus supplement) intake in this setting is approximately 800 to 1000 mg daily.
Δ A family history of asymptomatic hypercalcemia, especially in young children, is supportive of FHH.
◊ The majority of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism do not require genetic testing to confirm diagnosis.آیا می خواهید مدیلیب را به صفحه اصلی خود اضافه کنید؟
