==Overview==
==Overview==
 
The [[parathyroid glands]] are small [[endocrine glands]] in the neck, usually located behind the [[thyroid|thyroid gland]], which produce [[parathyroid hormone]]. These glands were first discovered in the Indian Rhinoceros by Richard Owen in 1852. The sole function of the  [[parathyroid glands]] is to maintain the body's [[calcium]] level within a very narrow range, so that the nervous and muscular systems can function properly. When blood [[calcium]] levels drop below a certain point, calcium-sensing receptors in the [[parathyroid gland]] are activated to release hormone into the blood. [[Parathyroid hormone]] ([[PTH]], also known as [[parathormone]]) is a small protein that takes part in the control of [[calcium]] and [[phosphate]] [[homeostasis]], as well as bone physiology. [[Parathyroid hormone]] has effects antagonistic to those of [[calcitonin]]. It increases blood calcium levels by stimulating [[osteoclasts]] to break down [[bone]] and release [[calcium]]. It also increases [[gastrointestinal]] calcium absorption by activating [[vitamin D]], and promotes calcium uptake by the [[kidneys]]. Hyperparathyroidism is overactivity of the  [[parathyroid glands]] resulting in excess production of [[parathyroid hormone]] ([[PTH]]). Overactivity of one or more of the  [[parathyroid glands]] causes high calcium levels ([[hypercalcemia]]) and low levels of [[phosphorus]] in the blood. Hyperfunctioning of the  [[parathyroid glands]] could be due to [[adenoma]], [[hyperplasia]] or, rarely, [[carcinoma]] of the [[parathyroid glands]]. [[Hyperparathyroidism]] may present with symptoms of [[hypercalcemia]], such as painful bones, [[kidney stones]], [[abdominal pain]], psychic moans, and [[fatigue]]. An elevated concentration of [[Calcium|serum calcium]] with elevated [[parathyroid hormone]] level is diagnostic of [[Hyperparathyroidism|primary hyperparathyoidism]]. Surgical therapy is preferred over medical therapy in primary [[hyperparathyroidism]]. [[Hypoparathyroidism]] is a disorder characterized by [[hypocalcemia]] due to insufficient secretion of [[PTH]]. Most common cause for [[hypoparathyroidism]] is post-surgical including [[thyroidectomy]], [[parathyroidectomy]], and radical [[neck dissection]]. Second most common cause for [[hypoparathyroidism]] is [[autoimmune]] including [[polyglandular autoimmune syndrome type 1]] and isolated [[Hypoparathyroidism|autoimmune hypoparathyroidism]]. [[Hypoparathyroidism]] should be differentiated from other causes of [[hypocalcemia]]. Causes of [[hypocalcemia]] other than [[hypoparathyroidism]] include [[pseudohypoparathyroidism]], [[hypomagnesemia]], [[Vitamin D deficiency|hypovitaminosis D]], [[chronic kidney disease]], and relative [[hypocalcemia]] due to [[hypoalbuminemia]]. The hallmark of acute [[hypocalcemia]] due to [[hypoparathyroidism]] is [[tetany]]. A positive history of [[neck surgery]] and symptoms of [[hypocalcemia]] is suggestive of [[hypoparathyroidism]]. The most common symptoms of [[hypoparathyroidism]] include [[tetany]], [[paresthesia]], [[Carpopedal spasm|carpopedal spasms]], and circumoral [[numbness]]. Common symptoms of [[hypoparathyroidism]] include [[abdominal pain]], [[biliary colic]], [[fatigue]], [[muscle cramps]], [[Myoclonic jerk|myoclonic jerks]], new onset [[seizure]] due to [[hypocalcemia]] or worsening of [[Seizure|seizures]], and [[painful menstruation]]. Diagnosis of [[hypoparathyroidism]] is made by measurement of [[serum]] [[calcium]] (total and ionized), [[serum albumin]] (for correction), [[phosphate]], intact [[parathyroid hormone]] ([[PTH]]), and [[25-hydroxy vitamin D]] levels. Normal or inappropriately low serum intact [[parathyroid hormone]] ([[PTH]]) concentration in patients with subnormal [[serum albumin]] corrected total or ionized [[calcium]] concentration diagnostic of [[hypoparathyroidism]]. Pharmacologic medical therapies for [[hypoparathyroidism]] include [[Calcium supplement|calcium]] and [[Vitamin D3]] supplementation. Severe [[hypocalcemia]], a potentially life-threatening condition,  is treated as soon as possible with [[intravenous]] [[calcium]] (e.g. as [[calcium gluconate]]).

==Differentiating Parathyroid Disorders==
==Differentiating Parathyroid Disorders==
*Parathyroid disorders usually cause an symptoms due to derangement in serum calcium. So, parathyroid disorders are differentiated within themselves and others on the basis of serum calcium levels.
* The main presenting features of [[parathyroid]] disorders are related to [[calcium]] secretion. Accordingly, differentiating [[parathyroid]] disorders from other diseases is mainly dependent to changes in calcium level. Following algorithms are designed to differentiate diseases according to [[hypercalcemia]] and [[hypocalcemia]].<ref name="pmid21812031">{{cite journal |vauthors=Bilezikian JP, Khan A, Potts JT, Brandi ML, Clarke BL, Shoback D, Jüppner H, D'Amour P, Fox J, Rejnmark L, Mosekilde L, Rubin MR, Dempster D, Gafni R, Collins MT, Sliney J, Sanders J |title=Hypoparathyroidism in the adult: epidemiology, diagnosis, pathophysiology, target-organ involvement, treatment, and challenges for future research |journal=J.

Overview

The parathyroid glands are small endocrine glands in the neck, usually located behind the thyroid gland, which produce parathyroid hormone. These glands were first discovered in the Indian Rhinoceros by Richard Owen in 1852. The sole function of the parathyroid glands is to maintain the body's calcium level within a very narrow range, so that the nervous and muscular systems can function properly. When blood calcium levels drop below a certain point, calcium-sensing receptors in the parathyroid gland are activated to release hormone into the blood. Parathyroid hormone (PTH, also known as parathormone) is a small protein that takes part in the control of calcium and phosphate homeostasis, as well as bone physiology. Parathyroid hormone has effects antagonistic to those of calcitonin. It increases blood calcium levels by stimulating osteoclasts to break down bone and release calcium. It also increases gastrointestinal calcium absorption by activating vitamin D, and promotes calcium uptake by the kidneys. Hyperparathyroidism is overactivity of the parathyroid glands resulting in excess production of parathyroid hormone (PTH). Overactivity of one or more of the parathyroid glands causes high calcium levels (hypercalcemia) and low levels of phosphorus in the blood. Hyperfunctioning of the parathyroid glands could be due to adenoma, hyperplasia or, rarely, carcinoma of the parathyroid glands. Hyperparathyroidism may present with symptoms of hypercalcemia, such as painful bones, kidney stones, abdominal pain, psychic moans, and fatigue. An elevated concentration of serum calcium with elevated parathyroid hormone level is diagnostic of primary hyperparathyoidism. Surgical therapy is preferred over medical therapy in primary hyperparathyroidism. Hypoparathyroidism is a disorder characterized by hypocalcemia due to insufficient secretion of PTH. Most common cause for hypoparathyroidism is post-surgical including thyroidectomy, parathyroidectomy, and radical neck dissection. Second most common cause for hypoparathyroidism is autoimmune including polyglandular autoimmune syndrome type 1 and isolated autoimmune hypoparathyroidism. Hypoparathyroidism should be differentiated from other causes of hypocalcemia. Causes of hypocalcemia other than hypoparathyroidism include pseudohypoparathyroidism, hypomagnesemia, hypovitaminosis D, chronic kidney disease, and relative hypocalcemia due to hypoalbuminemia. The hallmark of acute hypocalcemia due to hypoparathyroidism is tetany. A positive history of neck surgery and symptoms of hypocalcemia is suggestive of hypoparathyroidism. The most common symptoms of hypoparathyroidism include tetany, paresthesia, carpopedal spasms, and circumoral numbness. Common symptoms of hypoparathyroidism include abdominal pain, biliary colic, fatigue, muscle cramps, myoclonic jerks, new onset seizure due to hypocalcemia or worsening of seizures, and painful menstruation. Diagnosis of hypoparathyroidism is made by measurement of serum calcium (total and ionized), serum albumin (for correction), phosphate, intact parathyroid hormone (PTH), and 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels. Normal or inappropriately low serum intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentration in patients with subnormal serum albumin corrected total or ionized calcium concentration diagnostic of hypoparathyroidism. Pharmacologic medical therapies for hypoparathyroidism include calcium and Vitamin D3 supplementation. Severe hypocalcemia, a potentially life-threatening condition, is treated as soon as possible with intravenous calcium (e.g. as calcium gluconate).

Diagnosis

The diagnosis of parathyroid disorders is mainly based on serum concentration of parathyroid hormone, calcium, and phosphate.[3][4][5]
