Overview
Majority of parathyroid adenoma are asymptomatic. However, most common presentation of a parathyroid adenoma is hypercalcemia. So, parathyroid adenoma shall be differentiated from other conditions presenting pimarily as hypercalcemia.
Differential Diagnosis
- Majority of parathyroid adenoma are asymptomatic.
- However, most common presentation of a parathyroid adenoma is hypercalcemia.
- So, parathyroid adenoma shall be differentiated from other conditions presenting primarily as hypercalcemia.[1]
- Common conditions presenting as hypercalcemia include:
- Parathyroid adenoma (primary hyperparathyroidism)
- Secondary hyperthyroidism (long term)
- Tertiary hyperparathyroidism
- Familial hypocalceuric hypercalcemia
- Hypercalcemia due to malignancy
- Humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy
- Osteolytic tumors
- Production of calcitriol
- Ectopic parathyroid gland
- Medication induced
- Nutritional
- Milk alkali syndrome
- Vitamin D toxicity
- Granulomatous disease
Differential Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis of parathyroid adenoma on the basis of hypercalcemia | ||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Disorder | Mechanism of hypercalcemia | Clinical features | Laboratory findings | Imaging & diagnostic modalities | ||||
PTH | Calcium | Phosphate | Other findings | |||||
Parathyroid adenoma (Primary hyperparathyroidism) | Increase in secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH) from a primary process in parathyroid gland. Parathyroid hormone causes increase in serum calcium. |
|
↑ | ↑ | ↓/Normal | Normal/↑ calcitriol | Findings of bone resorption:
Preoperative localization of hyperfunctioning parathyroid gland:
Predicting post-operative success:
| |
Secondary hyperparathyroidism (long term) | Increase in secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH) from a secondary process. Parathyroid hormone causes increase in serum calcium after long periods. |
|
↑ | ↓/Normal | ↑ | -- | ||
Tertiary hyperparathyroidism | Continuous elevation of parathyroid hormone (PTH) even after successful treatment of the secondary cause of elevated parathyroid hormone. Parathyroid hormone causes increase in serum calcium. |
|
↑ | ↑ | ↑ | -- | ||
Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia | This is a genetic disorder caused my mutation in calcium-sensing receptor gene. |
|
Normal/↑ | Normal/↑ | -- | -- |
| |
Malignancy[2][3] | Humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy[4][5][6][7] | Tumor cells secretes parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) which has similar action as parathyroid hormone. |
|
-- | ↑ | ↓/Normal | ↑ PTHrP
Normal/↑ calcitriol |
|
Osteolytic tumors[8][9] | Multiple myeloma produces osteolysis of bones causing hypercalcemia. Osteolytic metasteses can cause bone resorption causing hypercalcemia. |
|
↓ | ↑ | -- | -- | ||
Production of calcitirol[10] | Some tumors has ectopic activity of 1-alpha-hydroxylase leading to increased production of calcitriol. Calcitriol is active form of vitamin D and causes hypercalcemia. |
|
-- | ↑ | -- | ↑ Calcitriol | ||
Ectopic parathyroid hormone[11] | Some tumors leads to ectopic production of parathyroid hormone. |
|
↑ | ↑ | ↓/Normal | Normal/↑ calcitriol | ||
Medication induced | Lithium[12] | Lithium lowers urinary calcium and causes hypercalcemia. Lithium has been reported to cause an increase in parathyroid hormone and enlargement if parathyroid gland after weeks to months of therapy. |
|
↑ | ↑ | -- | -- |
|
Thiazide diuretics[13] | Thiazide diuretics lowers urinary calcium excretion and causes hypercalcemia. |
|
-- | ↑ | -- | -- | -- | |
Nutritional | Milk-alkali syndrome | Hypercalcemia is be caused by high intake of calcium carbonate. |
|
-- | ↑ | -- | ↓ calcitriol | |
Vitamin D toxicity[14][15][16] | Excess vitamin D causes increased absorption of calcium from intestine causing hypercalcemia. |
|
-- | ↑ | -- | ↑ Vitamin D (calcidiol and/or calcitriol) | -- | |
Granulomatous disease | Sarcoidosis[19] | Hypercalcemia is causes by endogeous production of calcitriol by disease-activated macrophages. |
|
-- | ↑ | -- | ↑ Calcitriol
↑ ACE levels |
