2002 NIH Workshop on Asymptomatic PHPT
• Serum Ca > 1.0 mg/dL above the upper limit of normal.
• Hypercalciuria (urinary Ca excretion > 400 mg/day) .
• Creatinine clearance that is <30% than that of age-matched normal subjects.
• Bone density at the hip, lumbar spine, or distal radius that is T score <-2.5.
• <50 years old.
• Difficult periodic follow-up.

IOPTH MEASUREMENTS
• Recorded before resection of any enlarged glands
• Just before excising the gland.
• Postexcision IOPTH levels were measured 10 min or longer after resection of the enlarged parathyroid gland(s).
• A decrease of 50% or more in the IOPTH level was used to define successful parathyroidectomy.

Why should virtually all patients be considered for surgical intervention?
mm
•Surgery offers the only cure
•Surgery is of benefit to symptomatic patients
•Surgery is of benefit to “asymptomatic” patients
•Increases bone density and decreases fracture rates
Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
•Prolongs survival
•Improves neurocognitive symptoms
•92% of patients claim to feel better after parathyroidectomy, even when only 75% claim they felt "bad" before the operation.
•Regression of left ventricular hypertrophy.
•Cure of diabetes.
•Surgical cure rates are high
•Surgery is safe

• If present, parathyroidectomy should be delayed until the pheochromocytoma is addressed.
