RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Secondary hyperparathyroidism develops in nearly all patients with end-stage renal disease. Parathyroidectomy is often performed when medical therapy fails. The most common postoperative complication, hungry bone syndrome (HBS), requires early recognition and treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 84 patients who underwent parathyroidectomy because of secondary hyperparathyroidism were investigated. Detailed analysis of laboratory parameters (calcium, phosphate, parathyroid hormone, hemoglobin, and urea levels) and baseline characteristics (age at time of surgery, duration of renal replacement therapy, and medication) was performed to detect preoperative predictors for the development of HBS. RESULTS: Average overall follow-up of the cohort was 4.7 years. Within this time frame, 13 of 84 patients had to undergo a second surgery because of recurrent disease, and HBS occurred in 51.2%. Only decreased preoperative calcium levels and younger age at time of surgery were significant predictors of HBS. Minimal levels of calcium were detected 3 weeks after surgery. Preoperative vitamin D therapy could not prevent HBS and could not shorten the duration of intravenous calcium supplementation. CONCLUSION: HBS is a very common complication after parathyroidectomy. Younger patients and patients with low preoperative calcium levels were at higher risk for the development of HBS. Remarkably, preoperative vitamin D therapy could not prevent HBS and had no impact on the length of intravenous calcium supplementation. Intensive monitoring of calcium levels must be performed for at least 3 weeks after surgery.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT) is known as a very common complication in patients with chronic kidney disease, and G-protein-coupled calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR), Vitamin D receptor (VDR) and Fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR)/Klotho complexes seem to be involved in its development. METHODS: Hyperplastic parathyroid glands from 70 sHPT patients and normal parathyroid tissue from 7 patients were obtained during parathyroidectomy. Conventional morphological and immunohistochemical analysis of parathyroid glands was performed after dividing each slide in a 3x3 array. RESULTS: The presence of lipocytes in the normal parathyroid gland and tissue architecture (nodal in patients with sHPT) allows for discrimination between normal parathyroid glands and parathyroid glands of patients with sHPT. Protein expression of Klotho, FGFR, CaSR and VDR was higher in the normal parathyroid glands compared to the sHPT group (p<0.001, p=0.07, p =0.01 and p=0.001). The variability of each protein expression within each tissue slide was high. Therefore correlations between the different immunohistochemical variables were analyzed for each of the nine fields and than analyzed for all patients. Using this analysis, a highly significant positive correlation could be found between the expression of FGFR and VDR (p=0.0004). Interestingly, in terms of VDR we found a shift to a more mixed nuclear/cytoplasmic staining in the HPT group compared to normal parathyroid gland cells, which showed solitary nuclear staining for VDR (p>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: CaSR, VDR and an impaired Klotho-FGFR-axis seem to be the major players in the development of sHPT. Whether the detected correlation between FGFR and VDR and the shift to a more mixed nuclear/cytoplasmic staining of VDR will yield new insights into the pathogenesis of the disease has to be evaluated in further studies.

RESUMO

The presentation of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism is often atypical and ranges from normocalcemic, primary hyperparathyroidism to severe, symptomatic hypercalcemia. G-protein-coupled, calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR), vitamin D receptor (VDR), and fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR)/klotho complexes seem to be involved in the development of pHPT. Parathyroid glands from 53 patients with pHPT and normal parathyroid tissue from 7 patients were obtained during parathyroidectomy. Conventional detailed morphological and immunohistochemical analyses of parathyroid glands were performed after dividing each slide in a 3 × 3 array. From morphology, the number of lipocytes was significantly lower in parathyroid tissue glands in the pHPT group (p < 0.001). Protein expressions of klotho, CaSR, and VDR were significantly reduced in the pHPT compared with the control group (p = 0.004, p = 0.007, p < 0.001). No differences were seen between the two groups (p = 0.35) regarding expression of FGFR. Correlations between expression showed significant positively correlations between klotho and CaSR and FGFR and VDR. No correlations between klotho expression and serum calcium levels could be detected (R = -0.13, p = 0.66), but there were positive correlations between expressions of CaSR/serum phosphate and klotho/serum phosphate. Impaired protein expression of CaSR and VDR seem to be involved in the development of pHPT. The role of the FGFR/klotho-axis remains still unclear. Correlations between protein expression of CaSR and serum phosphate and klotho and serum phosphate levels could be detected. Whether these findings give new insights into the pathogenesis of the disease is yet unknown and has to be elucidated.
