Summary
Parathyroid carcinoma (PCa) is a rare presentation of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), accounting for less than 1% of cases. We aimed to investigate whether the hCGCb kit from Roche Diagnostics could distinguish PCa patients from primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism. Subjects and methods All patients diagnosed with primary hyperparathyroidism from 1970 to 2014 were included. Aim To validate the accuracy of Ca/P ratio in the diagnosis of Ca-P metabolism disorders, including patients with documented HypoP. We studied the prevalence of SHPT over five years after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and investigated whether SHPT was associated with serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and ionized calcium (iCa). Results Among the 319 included patients (230 women) the prevalence of SHPT was 32% before surgery, while the prevalence was 18%, 24%, 28% and 35% after a half, one, two and five years, respectively.
