BACKGROUND
Permanent hypoparathyroidism (hypoPT) represents the most common postoperative complication associated with total thyroidectomy. Current treatment relies on high-dose calcium and/or vitamin D supplementation, but often this is insufficient and some patients remain symptomatic. Parathyroid
Hypoparathyroidism commonly presents with paresthesias, fatigue, anxiety, muscle cramps and infrequently with seizures due to hypocalcaemia. Here, we present a case of 27-year-old adult female presenting with new onset convulsions who was subsequently diagnosed to have primary (congenital)
A 23-year-old man was suffering from high fever and general fatigue 6 months before admission. The levels of serum Ca and intact-parathyroid hormone (PTH) were low. His brain computed tomography (CT) revealed marked calcifications of the basal ganglia, and pelvis magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
Post-surgical hypoparathyroidism (hypoPT) increases fatigue and seems to affect the risk of mortality. Cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is an impairment of the cardiovascular autonomic system, a cause of increased mortality and associated with increased fatigability. The aim of this study
BACKGROUND
Conventional treatment of hypoparathyroidism with calcium, Vitamin D analogs, and thiazide diuretics is often suboptimal, and these patients have poor quality of life. Teriparatide (parathyroid hormone 1-34 [PTH (1-34)]), an amide of PTH, is widely available for the use in osteoporosis;
Data on coexisting Graves' disease (GD), hypoparathyroidism, and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are limited. The thyroid and parathyroid glands may be extra sensitive to irradiation damage in an underlying autoimmune condition. A 34-year-old black woman presented with tetanic-like cramps, easy
To conduct an initial psychometric evaluation of the reliability and validity of the Hypoparathyroidism Symptom Diary (HPT-SD).Data were collected during a cross-sectional, observational study. Participants with self-reported hypoparathyroidism (HPT)
BACKGROUND
Primary hypoparathyroidism is a rare condition caused by parathyroid hormone deficiency and characterized by hypocalcemia. The clinical manifestations of primary hypoparathyroidism include tetany, seizures, paresthesias, dementia, and parkinsonism. Psychiatric manifestations such as mood
Several recent articles question whether patients with asymptomatic hyperparathyroidism and minimal hypercalcemia should be treated by parathyroidectomy. We therefore reviewed our experience in 103 consecutive patients with primary hyperparathyroidism who were treated by parathyroidectomy to
OBJECTIVE
Recurrent laryngeal nerve dysfunction and hypoparathyroidism are well-recognized, important complications of thyroid surgery. The duration of convalescence after noncomplicated thyroid operation may depend on several factors, of which pain and fatigue are the most important. Nausea and
The atrophy produced by endocrine disorders is primarily due to alterations in protein and carbohydrate metabolism. Type II muscle fibers are more severely affected than are Type I fibers. Steroid myopathy and the myopathy associated with excess ACTH have a typical pattern of proximal weakness
Pseudohypoparathyroidism type Ib (PHP-Ib) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia due to imprinting defects in the maternally derived GNAS allele. Patients with PHP-Ib are usually identified by tetany, convulsions, and/or muscle cramps, whereas a substantial
Electrolytes are essential for basic life functioning such as maintaining electrical neutrality in the cells, generation, and conduction of action potentials in the nerves and muscles. Sodium, potassium, and chloride are the significant electrolytes along with magnesium, calcium, phosphate, and
Abstract We report a case of hypocalcemic myopathy confounded by polymyositis due to an elevated level of serum creatine kinase (CK). A 30-year-old man was referred to our hospital for the treatment of provisionally diagnosed polymyositis. His presentation with tetany, hyporeflexia, and general
In the past 10 years we have examined 20 children with inflammatory liver disease associated with high serum titers of anti-liver-kidney microsome antibody (anti-LKM). The first hepatic symptoms were progressive fatigue and jaundice, the fortuitous finding of hepatomegaly or splenomegaly with raised
