Annotation
general or unspecified; prefer specifics
Scope Note
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
.
