when too much PTH is produced
What is the function of PTH?
regulation of calcium and phosphate level
What are the three types of hyperparathyroidism?
primary: hyperfunction of the glands (increased PTH, inc CA)
secondary: increase PTH due to hypocalcamia (inc PTH, low Ca)
tertiary: longterm secondary leads to tertiary: these people develp hyperplasia of the parathyorid glands (high PTH, Ca)
What other feature do people with hyperparathyroidsm suffer from?
Chronic renal failure
What features exist of hyperparathyroidism?
Stones,bones and abdominal groans Epulis calcification peptic ulcer muscular atrophy renal failure osteieits fibrosa cystica sull decalcifcation
What is the action of PTH in the body?
inceases bone resorption
increases ca resorption from GI
increases ca resorption from kidneys
decreases phosphate reabsortption
what is hypoparathyroidisdm?
decreased production of PTH leading to low levels of calcium
what are the symptoms of hypoparathyroissm?
MABS PHFWAL
Muscle twitching arrhythmias bone pain stridor fatigue paraesthesia head ache weight gain loss of hair
