Abstract

Postsurgical chronic hypoparathyroidism is most commonly seen in adults. Synthetic recombinant human parathyroid hormone (rhPTH) 1-34 can be used to stabilize serum calcium levels in patients with resistant hypocalcemia in rare conditions. 
 Here we report a 52-year-old woman with postsurgical uncontrolled hypocalcemia despite the usual therapy. Once-daily treatment with PTH 1-34 maintained serum calcium within the normal range and reduced the dose of previous medical therapies.
