OBJECTIVE: Disturbed renal function may play an important role in the clinico-pathological presentation of primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT). We studied the influence of renal function on the clinico-pathological characteristics of 141 patients (123 women and 18 men) with surgically proven pHPT. METHODS: The 141 patients were assigned to one of two groups based on creatinine clearance (C(cr)) level: a renal insufficiency group (n=37) in which C(cr) of patients was <70 ml/min and a normal renal function group (n=104) in which C(cr) was > or =70 ml/min. Clinical presentation and biochemical indices were evaluated and compared between the two groups. RESULTS: Age, and frequency of hypertension and of diabetes mellitus were significantly (P<0.001, P<0.05 and P<0.05 respectively) higher in the renal insufficiency group than in the normal renal function group. Serum levels of calcium, intact parathyroid hormone and bone Gla protein were significantly (P<0.05) higher and the excised parathyroid weighed significantly more (P<0.05) in the renal insufficiency group than in the normal renal function group; however, serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)(2)D) and 24 h urinary calcium excretion were significantly (P<0.001 and P<0.05 respectively) lower in the former than in the latter group. There was a significant inverse correlation between C(cr) level and serum calcium (r=0.315, P<0.001) and a significant positive correlation between C(cr) level, 1,25(OH)(2)D (r=0.315, P<0.001), and 24 h calcium excretion (r=0.458, P<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Clinico-pathological features of pHPT were notably influenced by even moderate renal insufficiency. Urinary calcium excretion decreased according to the decrease in glomerular filtration rate. Therefore, endocrinologists need to appraise urinary calcium excretion and renal function of pHPT patients when considering surgery or in discriminating familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia.

Abstract Vitamin D insufficiency is common in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and may be associated with more severe and progressive disease. Uncertainty exists, however, as to whether repletion of vitamin D should be undertaken in patients with PHPT. Here we report the effects of vitamin D repletion on biochemical outcomes over 1 yr in a group of 21 patients with mild PHPT [serum calcium &lt;12 mg/dl (3 mmol/liter)] and coexistent vitamin D insufficiency [serum 25 hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] &lt;20 μg/liter (50 nmol/liter)]. In response to vitamin D repletion to a serum 25(OH)D level greater than 20 μg/liter (50 nmol/liter), mean levels of serum calcium and phosphate did not change, and serum calcium did not exceed 12 mg/dl (3 mmol/liter) in any patient. Levels of intact PTH fell by 24% at 6 months (P &lt; 0.01) and 26% at 12 months (P &lt; 0.01). There was an inverse relationship between the change in serum 25(OH)D and that in intact PTH (r = −0.43, P = 0.056). At 12 months, total serum alkaline phosphatase was significantly lower, and urine N-telopeptides tended to be lower than baseline values (P = 0.02 and 0.13, respectively). In two patients, 24-h urinary calcium excretion rose to exceed 400 mg/d, but the group mean 24-h urinary calcium excretion did not change. These preliminary data suggest that vitamin D repletion in patients with PHPT does not exacerbate hypercalcemia and may decrease levels of PTH and bone turnover. Some patients with PHPT may experience an increase in urinary calcium excretion after vitamin D repletion.

Introduction: Normocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism (NPHPT) is characterized by elevations in serum parathyroid hormone levels in the presence of normal serum calcium concentrations after exclusion of secondary hyperparathyroidism. We have previously demonstrated no differences in the prevalence of clinically active urolithiasis between NPHPT and hypercalcemic asymptomatic PHPT, and that it is significantly higher in postmenopausal osteoporotic women with NPHPT in comparison to women with normal serum PTH and calcium concentrations. Few studies have addressed the occurrence of silent or occult kidney stones in asymptomatic hypercalcemic PHPT, but no data are available for NPHPT. Objective: To determine the presence of occult urolithiasis in NPHPT patients using routine abdominal ultrasonography. Methods and Results: We studied 35 patients with NPHPT (mean age 63.2 ± 10.7 years, 96% women; serum PTH 116.5 ± 39.2 pg/mL, 25OHD 38.5 ± 6.82 ng/mL, total calcium 9.1 ± 0.56 mg/dL; albumin 4.02 ± 0.37 g/dL; BUN 34.35 ±10.23 mg/dL; p = 3.51 ± 0.60 mg/dL; estimated glomerular filtration rate 88.44 ± 32.45 mL/min/1.73 m2, and 24-h urinary calcium excretion 140.6 ± 94.3 mg/24 h). The criteria for the diagnosis of NPHPT were as follows: serum PTH above the reference range (11–65 pg/mL), normal albumin-corrected serum calcium concentrations, normal 24-h urinary calcium excretion, serum 25OHD above 30 ng/mL, estimated GFR (MDRD) above 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (with the exclusion of medications such as thiazide diuretics, lithium, bisphosphonates, and denosumab), a history of clinical symptoms of urolithiasis, and a family history of kidney stones. Thirty-five patients were evaluated and 25 of them met the inclusion criteria. Five patients presented nephrolithiasis corresponding to 20% of the study population. There were no statistically significant differences in any of the clinical or laboratory variables studied between patients with or without urolithiasis, although mean serum PTH levels were higher in patients with stones (180.06 ± 126.48 vs. 100.72 ± 25.28 pg/mL, p = 0.1). The size of the stones ranged from 0.6 to 0.9 cm and all of the stones were located in the renal pelvis. Conclusion: We found a high prevalence of occult kidney stones in NPHPT patients, similar to what is observed in clinically manifested urolithiasis, in hypercalcemic PHPT.

1. The renal handling of calcium was examined in 31 patients with hypercalcaemia of malignancy. Results were compared with those from patients with primary hyperparathyroidism, and normal controls rendered hypercalcaemic by calcium infusion. 2. On relating the urinary calcium excretion indices to serum calcium values, inappropriately low rates of urinary calcium excretion were generally found in patients with malignancy associated hypercalcaemia. Further, the pattern of urinary calcium excretion in these subjects was similar to that found in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism. 3. These observations suggest that, in many solid tumours, the development of hypercalcaemia may be attributable to a humoral mediator with a parathyroid hormone-like effect on renal tubular calcium reabsorption. 4. The relatively frequent occurrence of hypercalcaemia in malignant disease thus may be partially explained by the presence of this humoral agent, which may impair the renal excretion of an increase in filtered calcium load, whether due to bone metastases, or humorally mediated osteolysis.
