| There are three types of hyperparathyroidism and should be differentiated between each other. Hyperparathyroidism should be differeniated from other causes of hypercalcemia.
| |
| Causes of hypercalcemia include:
| |
| *Parathyroid related
| |
| **Primary hyperparathyroidism
| |
| ***Typical primary hyperparathyroidism
| |
| ***Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia
| |
| **Secondary hyperparathyroidism
| |
| **Tertiary hyperparathyroidism
| |
| *Non-parathyroid related
| |
| **Malignancy
| |
| ***Para-neoplastic syndrome: Parathyroid hormone related peptide
| |
| ***Hypercalcemia due to bone destruction
| |
| **Medication induced
| |
| ***Thiazide diuretics
| |
| ***Lithium
| |
| **Nutritional
| |
| ***Milk alkali syndrome
| |
| ***Vitamin D toxicity
| |
| **Granulomatous disease
| |
| ***Sarcoidosis
| |
| **Surgical
| |
| ***Immobilization
