ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the clinical manifestations,diagnosis,misdiagnosis and treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism.Methods The clinical data of 36 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism admitted into the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2009 to October 2014 were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively.Results The manifestations of primary hyperparathyroidism were various and atypical.Primary hyperparathyroidism was often misdiagnosed as other diseases by 25.0％ (9/36).Among the patients,the ratio of male to female was 1:1,and median age was 58 years old.Of all patients,there were 9 persons with joint pain,digestive system symptoms in 7 cases,cervical mass discovered in 6 cases(3 cases were found when B ultrasonic examination),urinary calculus in 5 cases,fatigue symptoms in 4 cases,osteoporosis and urinary calculus in 2 cases,1 case with fracture,2 cases without any symptoms.Their calcium and parathyroid hormone level were increased by various degree.The accuracy rates of level diagnosis of Color Doppler ultrasound combine with CT or 99Tcm-MIBI were improved obviously,85.2％ and 93.1％ respectively.Twenty-eight patients received surgical treatment and pathology examination confirmed the accurate pathological types after surgery.There were 23 cases of parathyroid adenoma,1 case parathyroid hyperplasia,1 case parathyroid carcinoma,2 cases of parathyroid adenoma with nodular goiter,parathyroid adenoma merged thyroid carcinoma in 1 case.Serum calcium and parathyroid hormone level declined obviously after operation.The other 8 patients received non-surgical treatment,7 cases were alleviated and 1 case died due to irreformable high blood calcium crisis.Conclusion There should be pay attention to recognize primary hyperparathyroidism,check the blood calcium,and about suspected cases should be performed as early as parathyroid tested,neck color Doppler ultrasound.Early surgical treatment can significantly improve the prognosis and quality of life.
