Tertiary hyperparathyroidism & postoperative symptomatic hypocalcemia
Case presentation
Hospital course.
• 3/23/2012 OR: neck exploration, parathyroidectomy
x4, LUQ abdominal wall SQ autograft implant.
-
Path: hyperplasia x 4 glands.
Standard postop Ca2+ repletion protocol initiated.
o CaCl 2 gm IV q4 h started and then titrated down and PO
supplementation stated as serum Ca2+ levels allow.
o Often 5-7 days required before eucalcemia is achieved.
• POD #5: Febrile, UTI treated and resolved with ABX.
• POD #8: D/c home.
-
Calcium trended down postoperative (see next slide).

At time of d/c, prn repletion requirements were minimal
(single Ca gluc 2 gm x1/d); PO repletion was stable (2400
mg PO qid); and calcitriol was increased (1 ug PO bid).
D/c plans included close f/u lab values as outpatient.

Tertiary hyperparathyroidism & postoperative symptomatic hypocalcemia
Tertiary hyperparathyroidism (HPT)
Refractory disease after RTx, surgically treated.
• Tertiary (HPT) most often occurs in the setting after
renal txp.
• It is (almost always) caused by hyperplasia of the
(four) parathyroid glands. Indications for operation,
next slide.

Tertiary hyperparathyroidism (HPT)
Refractory disease after RTx, surgically treated.
• Tertiary (HPT) most often occurs in the setting after
renal txp.
• It is (almost always) caused by hyperplasia of the
(four) parathyroid glands. Indications for operation,
next slide.
• Reports indicate about 1-5% of RTx patients require
surgical management.
• “Hungry bone syndrome” (accelerated bone remineralization) and delayed autograft
recovery/function both increase the risk for transient
hypocalcemia.

Slide 22
Tertiary hyperparathyroidism & postoperative symptomatic hypocalcemia
Tertiary hyperparathyroidism (HPT)
Refractory disease after RTx, surgically treated.
• For this reason patients are placed on an aggressive
Ca2+ supplementation schedule postoperatively,
initially IV then transitioned to PO.
• Only a small fraction of patients (<5%) require
subsequent surgical intervention, i.e. autograft reexcision for persistent HPT.
