A 24-year-old female patient with parathyroid carcinoma, the rarest endocrine malignancy, had two pregnancies. In the first pregnancy, she had severe nausea and fatigue. Hypercalcemia and hyperparathyroidism were diagnosed in the postpartum period. Hyperemesis gravidarum masked a diagnosis of
Treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO) is based primarily on antiresorptive agents, including hormone replacement therapy (HT). To evaluate whether anabolic therapy together with HT provides additional benefits in the treatment of PMO, we evaluated the effects of parathyroid hormone (PTH)
OBJECTIVE
To report a case of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) that presented with recurrent hypercalcemia due to multiple myeloma after successful parathyroidectomy.
METHODS
The initial manifestations, investigations, and postoperative follow-up of a case of hypercalcemia due to PHPT are
Hypercalcaemia would seem to be rare during immobilisation, whilst osteoporosis and hypercalciuria are constant. In fact, it often goes unnoticed. The case presented here confirms its predominance in the adolescent male. The reason for immobilisation seems to be irrelevant. The clinical symptoms are
Because no comparative studies exist, no clear pronouncements can be made about the potential differences in effectiveness and safety between PTH 1-34 and PTH 1-84. As regards the efficacy, a convincing reduction of vertebral fractures was shown in both cases [Neer, R.M., Arnaud, C.D., Zanchetta,
Four patients having high-level quadriplegia developed elevated serum calcium concentrations (11 to 15.8 mg/100 ml) within three months of injury. All were young males (ages 15 to 19 years) and quadriplegic (C4-C7). Presenting symptoms were nausea, vomiting, polydipsia, polyuria and lethargy. In two
Carbetimer (carboxyimamidate) is a low molecular weight derivative of ethylene/maleic anhydride polymer. This compound has demonstrated antitumor activity against several animal models with a daily x 5 schedule appearing most effective. A phase I clinical study of the daily x 5 schedule repeated
BACKGROUND
Recombinant human parathyroid hormone (1-84) (PTH) increases bone mass and strength and improves bone quality by stimulating new bone formation.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the safety of PTH and its effect on the incidence of vertebral fractures in postmenopausal women with
