Primary HyperparathyroidismCase Report and ManagementDepartment: of Pediatrics, Juntendo University School of Medicine, 2-1-1, Hongo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, Japan
A 13-year-old girl presenting with abdominal pain, polyuria, polydipsia, and radiologically confirmed renal calculi was diagnosed as having primary hyper parathyroidism. Laboratory data revealed markedly elevated serum calcium, low phosphorus, and elevated parathyroid hormone. Other parathyroid function tests also confirmed the diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism. Ultrasound ex amination showed a small echogenic nodule in the parathyroid gland. Following a single gland resection, the extremely high serum calcium level promptly decreased to normal range, and it has remained normal.
