Presentation Transcript

  1. Hyperparathyroidism • overactivitiy of the parathroid gland • PTH strong osteoclastic hormone • Primary • parathyroid gland adenoma • Secondary chronic renal disease • Hemodialysis (endstage renal glomerular disease) • aka renal osteodystrophy

  2. Primary HPT • most common type • mc cause of hypercalcemia • parathyroid adenoma 90%) • carcinoma, hyperplasia, ectopic PTH producing tumors • elevated parathormone levels, hypercalcemia, hypophosphatemia

  3. Secondary HPT • complication of chronic renal disease • persist loss of calcium and phosphorus • stimulates PTH release (high PTH and low to normal calcium) • Hyperphosphatemia (kidneys can’t excrete it as well) • Tertiary HPT is seen in dialysis patients, parathryoid gland acts independent of serum calcium levels (high PTH and Calcium) • Radiographic DDx of types is difficult

  4. 30-50 women > men • bone pain, fractures, weakness, lethargy, polydipsia, polyuria • Hypercalcemia leads to muscle weakness, hypotonia • may have renal stones • pancreatitis • hypercalcemia in primary, normal to low in secondary • elevated alkaline phosphatase • elevated PTH

  5. stones, bones, abdominal groans and psychiatric moans (renal stones, peptic ulcers, pancreatitis, confusion, lethargy, weakness)

  6. Parathormone physiology • maintains the circulating level of calcium ion • stimulates osteoclasts, which reabsorb bone and release calcium and phosphorus ion into the blood stream • increase calcium absorption through the small intestine • renal tubular phosphate excretion and calcium absorption; upsets homeostasis • in secondary HPT; calcium loss and abnormal Vit D formation leads to hypocalcemia and release of PTH

  7. Radiography - HPT • Osteopenia • Subperiosteal resorption (diagnostic) • Distal tuft resorption • Accentuated trabeculation • Brown tumors (cystic accumulations of fibrous tissue) • Loss of cortical definition • Soft tissue calcification • Metastatic calcification; eg., vascular calcification

  8. Subperiosteal resorption • most definitive radiographic sign of HPT • esp at the radial margins middle and proximal phalanges of the 2nd and 3rd digits • outer cortical erosion may appear frayed or lace like • widened joint spaces and osteolysis, esp AC and SI joints

  9. Rugger Jersey spine Sub-endplatesclerosis

  10. Salt and Pepper Skull

  11. Subchondral resorption

  12. Pre and Post treatment

  13. Renal osteodystrophy

  14. Undifferentiated seronegative spondyloarthropathy (history, clinical presentation and what is the most likely
