18.3.1 PHPT inMEN 2A
PHPT is associated with 15–20% of MEN 2A and is diagnosed more frequently
with mutations in exon II, codon 634, and the RET gene [11]. The genotypephenotype correlation is more characteristic of these mutations. The peak age for
clinical manifestations is the 3rd decade, with symptoms usually mild. The PHPT
is mostly detected on laboratory evaluations, and the treatment is surgical. The
surgical treatment again is an occasion for the enlarged parathyroid gland (adenoma) only. The Intensity of the screening should be higher in those carrying the
ret gene mutation, especially with exon 11 (Algorithm, Box 18.2 and
Fig.18.2) [12].
18.4 Conclusion
Subtotal parathyroidectomy, either three glands or 31/2 gland excision, has the
edge over total parathyroidectomy since a similar recurrence rate is found.
Persistent or prolonged hypoparathyroidism is more frequent with total parathyroidectomy. Clinically evident PHPT is rare associated with MEN 2A. Most
index cases presenting with PHPT as the rst manifestation have synchronous
MTC and are often node-positive, and excision of the enlarged gland is the treatment of choice.

Hyperparathyroidism ofRenal Origin

A.Vimala, RanjaniRavi, andJinsiNBabu
Hyperparathyroidism is dened as increased production of parathormone by parathyroid glands and based on pathophysiology is classied as: primary hyperparathyroidism, secondary hyperparathyroidism, tertiary hyperparathyroidism, and
refractory hyperparathyroidism. This chapter essentially deals with secondary, tertiary, and refractory hyperparathyroidism related to renal dysfunction.
19.1 Secondary Hyperparathyroidism (SHPT)
Deteriorating renal function causes phosphate retention and hypocalcemia.
Parathyroid hyperactivity is a secondary phenomenon to maintain calcium/phosphate metabolism. This is achieved by several feedback loops between the kidney,
the parathyroid glands, bone, and intestine as shown in Fig.19.1.
The normal homeostasis of calcium is based on an interplay among kidneys,
bones, and intestines and is closely linked to phosphate metabolism and vitamin
D.Serum calcium levels may be disturbed by changes in any of the homeostatic
mechanisms and may result in changes in any of the following abnormalities singly
or in combination.
Hyperphosphatemia, hypocalcemia, high serum broblast growth factor 23 (FGF
23), and decreased 1,25OH vitamin D stimulate parathyroid cells to synthesis parathyroid hormone. Common causes of secondary hyperparathyroidism are noted in
Table19.1 [1].

19.2 Secondary Hyperparathyroidism ofRenal Origin (SHPT)
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is commonly associated with disorders of mineral
and bone metabolism and is grouped as Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral Bone
Disorder (CKD-MBD). Secondary hyperparathyroidism is one of the manifestations of CKD- MBD and is the commonest cause of secondary
hyperparathyroidism.
Renal dysfunction is classied based on estimated glomerular ltration rate
(eGFR) and the KDIGO grading system of the renal functional stage is noted in
Table19.2.

Subclinical abnormalities such as loss of klotho, increased FGF23 secretion,
decreased bone formation rates, and vascular calcication occur from stage G2
onwards. But clinical manifestations and biochemically detectable abnormalities in
serum phosphorus, calcium, PTH, and vitamin D become evident only when the
glomerular ltration rate (GFR) falls below 40 mL/min, In CKD stage 5
(eGFR<15 mL/min/1.73 m2), almost all patients have evidence of bone disease.
Approximately 80% of incident dialysis patients have evidence of coronary artery
calcication. Hence, guidelines for CKD-MBD advise monitoring for the same for
patients from CKD stage III onwards. According to KDIGO (Kidney Disease
Improving Global Outcomes) 2012 guidelines, CKD is staged based on eGFR
(eGFR is estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate) calculated by the CKD-EPI
equation.
19.3 Prevalence ofSecondary Hyperparathyroidism
In 1982, Memmos D et al. reported hyperparathyroidism in 90% of patients on
dialysis [3]. Chiranjee Lal Dayma etal. from Rajasthan reported a 72% prevalence
in CKD patients [4]. In our center, 90% prevalence of secondary hyperparathyroidism is seen in dialysis-dependent patients (unpublished).
Pathophysiology. The balance of serum calcium and serum phosphorous is
grossly altered in CKD. Secondary hyperparathyroidism is adaptive parathyroid
gland hyperplasia which maintains calcium phosphate balance. Increased production of PTH is secondary to stimuli such as hyperphosphatemia, hypocalcemia, and
increased FGF23.
The serum PTH production in these patients is increased by three mechanisms
and is shown in Fig.19.2.
1. Hyperphosphatemia: Phosphate homeostasis is maintained by glomerular ltra-
tion and tubular secretion. With the decline in GFR in CKD, ltration and hence
excretion of phosphate is decreased resulting in phosphate retention. During early

phases of renal dysfunction, phosphate reabsorption is decreased in remaining
normal nephrons as an attempt to lower mounting serum phosphate levels. This
effect is mediated by both FGF23 and PTH.In advanced stages 4 and 5 of CKD,
phosphate homeostasis cannot be maintained by the above mechanism and
patients develop hyperphosphatemia. Hyperphosphatemia suppresses the renal
hydroxylation of inactive 25-hydroxy vitamin D to 1, 25-hydroxy vitamin D
(calcitriol).
2. Hypocalcemia: Hypocalcemia results secondary to phosphate accumulation
and decreased production of calcitriol by kidneys and is evident in stage 5 of
CKD.Hypocalcemia has a negative feedback effect on calcium-sensing receptors (CaSR) on parathyroid cells leading to cellular hyperplasia excessive synthesis and secretion of PTH.
3. FGF 23: Reduction in GFR results in an increase in FGF 23 from the bones
which directly acts on parathyroid cells as well as indirectly by suppressing calcitriol synthesis.
19.3.1 Bricker’s Trade-off Hypothesis
Bricker proposed the following sequence. There is increased reabsorption of phosphate from the GI tract. An increase in phosphate leads to a reduction in calcium as
it forms complexes with calcium. This is sensed by parathyroid which increases

19 Hyperparathyroidism ofRenal Origin
275
PTH response. Increased PTH restores calcium balance and decreases phosphate
reabsorption. A trade-off thus occurs in which SHPT is the price paid for normal
calcium and phosphorous.
Low calcitriol stimulates parathormone production. So, in end-stage renal diseases, parathyroid glands are stimulated by various factors which include hyperphosphatemia, hypocalcemia, low serum calcitriol, and elevated FGF 23. SHPT is a
reversible condition and overactive glands revert to the normal state when the stimuli are removed.
Monitoring in CKD for secondary hyperparathyroidism (Table19.3):
• Serum calcium and phosphorous should be monitored every 6–12 months in
CKD stage III, every 3–6 months in stage CKD stage 4, and every 1–3 months
on CKD stage V including G 5 D (dialysis).
• Serum PTH should be monitored every 6–12 months in CKD stage IV and every
3–6 months in CKD stage V.The value of PTH in CKD VD should be maintained
between two to nine times the upper limit of PTH assay.
• Serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is an indirect indicator of CKD MBD; how-
ever, its use as an indicator and to monitor the same has not been validated or
recommended. Serum ALP is an enzyme that removes phosphate from protein
and nucleotides. Other than bone it is present in the liver, intestine, and placenta.
Although ALP levels reect bone turnover and are usually raised in secondary
hyperparathyroidism of renal origin, ALP is not a specic indicator for the same.
Bone-specic ALP may be a better marker however further studies are required
to validate the same.
The swing of PTH, serum calcium, and phosphorous with a decrease in eGFR is
shown in Fig.19.3.

19.3.2 Consequences ofSecondary Hyperparathyroidism
Apart from bone loss secondary hyperparathyroidism can lead to soft tissue and
vascular calcications in patients with chronic kidney disease. The presence of
CKD MBD is a strong predictor of increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Hence, the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism should be initiated in
the early stages itself.
19.3.3 Medical Treatment
The treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism is aimed at treating the trigger for
PTH secretion.
Treat vitamin D deciency: Correction of vitamin D deciency is recommended
except when associated with severe hyperphosphatemia or hypercalcemia [5].
Control hyperphosphatemia: Serum levels of phosphate should be maintained
between 3.5 and 5.5mg/dL.
Measures to Lower Serum Phosphate:
1. Dietary restriction of phosphate.
2. Dietary regulations alone are not effective in the control of hyperphosphatemia.
Phosphate binders are recommended in patients with persistently elevated serum
phosphate >5.5mg/dL in addition to dietary restriction. Phosphate binders are
calcium-based—calcium acetate, calcium carbonate, non-calcium binders such
as sevelamer carbonate, sevelamer hydrochloride, lanthanum carbonate, nicotinic acid, ferric citrate, and tenapanor.
Correction of hypocalcemia: Maintaining serum calcium levels to a low normal
is done by supplementation when symptomatic hypocalcemia is encountered. The
serum corrected calcium is maintained above 7.5mg/dL.Calcium supplements with

19 Hyperparathyroidism ofRenal Origin
dihydroxy vitamin D are done to treat hypocalcemia. Adverse effects of calcium
supplementation are hypercalcemia or positive calcium balance without hypercalcemia both of which can contribute to cardiovascular mortality.
Treatment of persistent progressive parathormone levels (PTH> 150–200 pg/
mL) if upper limit of normal is 65pg/mL.
Patients with renal dysfunction and elevated PTH are given calcitriol (1-25OHD-
0.25μg) thrice weekly especially in patients with hypovitaminosis but better avoided
when associated with hypercalcemia.
277
19.4 Tertiary Hyperparathyroidism
Secondary hyperparathyroidism is an adaptive phenomenon and resolves to the
normal stage when the precipitating factors are removed. Prolonged stimulation
of parathyroid cells due to increased phosphate, low calcitriol, and hypocalcemia
results in nodular or diffuse hyperplasia. These hyperplastic nodules do not
undergo regular involution. Rarely these nodules can undergo a malignant transformation as well. In patients with tertiary hyperparathyroidism decreased expression of CaSR and VDR result in a lack of suppression of PTH by increased
calcium levels or vitamin D analogs. In contrast to SHPT which is a reversible
condition, tertiary hyperparathyroidism is irreversible. Tertiary hyperparathyroidism is a progression from SHPT.The parathyroid glands are autonomous and are
no longer regulated by calcium levels. This results in hypercalcemia and variable
phosphate levels. At our center, 12.5% of dialysis patients have tertiary hyperparathyroidism. We have taken hypercalcemia as corrected calcium> 9.5 mg/
dL.This is after excluding calcium supplements and vit D as a cause for hypercalcemia. [Corrected calcium = serum calcium + 0.8 * (4 − serum albumin)]
Example: if measured Ca is 7.5 mg/dL and measured Albumin is 3g/L, corrected
Ca = 7.5 + 0.8 × (4−3) =7.5 +0.8 = 8.3mg/dL.
Treatment of Tertiary Hyperparathyroidism:
1. Calcitriol or other vitamin D analog supplementation after correcting hyper-
phosphatemia– Vitamin D supplementation suppresses serum parathyroid levels
by reducing production as well as by increasing serum calcium levels.
2. Calcimimetics: The activation of calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) decreases PTH
secretion. Calcimimetics like cinacalcet increase the sensitivity of the CASR to
calcium thereby reducing plasma PTH concentration and in turn reducing calcium
and phosphorous levels. However, although they do cause a decrease in PTH levels, they have not been shown to have any cardiovascular mortality benet [6].
19.5 Refractory Hyperparathyroidism
Denition: Severe persistent progressive elevation of PTH that cannot be treated
adequately by medical therapy including VIT D analogs and calcimimetics without
causing signicant hyperphosphatemia or hypocalcemia. PTH levels should be
more than 800 pg/mL.
