Overview
The exact pathogenesis of [disease name] is not fully understood.
OR
It is thought that [disease name] is the result of / is mediated by / is produced by / is caused by either [hypothesis 1], [hypothesis 2], or [hypothesis 3].
OR
[Pathogen name] is usually transmitted via the [transmission route] route to the human host.
OR
Following transmission/ingestion, the [pathogen] uses the [entry site] to invade the [cell name] cell.
OR
[Disease or malignancy name] arises from [cell name]s, which are [cell type] cells that are normally involved in [function of cells].
OR
The progression to [disease name] usually involves the [molecular pathway].
OR
The pathophysiology of [disease/malignancy] depends on the histological subtype.
Pathophysiology
Parathyroid, Vitamin D, and mineral homeostasis
The effect of parathyroid hormone on mineral metabolism is as follows:[1][2]
- Effect of parathyroid hormone on inorganic phosphate metabolism:
- Increases excretion of inorganic phosphate from kidney resulting in decreased serum concentration of phosphate.
- Effect on parathyroid hormone on calcium metabolism:
- Direct effect:
- Increased resorption of bones.
- Decreases excretion from kidney.
- Indirect effect:
- Increases conversion of inactive 25-hydroxy vitamin D to the active 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D which increases absorption of calcium from gut. Decreased phosphate concentration also increases this conversion process. Vitamin D shows synergism with parathyroid hormone action on bone.
- Decreased serum inorganic phosphate concentration prevents precipitation of calcium phosphate in bones.
- Both these direct and indirect mechanism results in an increased serum calcium concentration.
- Direct effect:
- Effect of parathyroid hormone on magnesium concentration:
Effect of minerals and vitamin D on parathyroid hormone:
- Decrease in serum calcium concentration stimulates parathyroid hormone.
- Calcium provides negative feedback on parathyroid hormone.
- Magnesium provides negative feedback on parathyroid hormone.
- Vitamin D decreases the concentration of parathyroid hormone.
The sequence of events is shown in the algorithm below:

Calcium-sensing receptors
- Calcium-sensing receptors are present on parathyroid glands. They are a type of 7-transmembrane receptors in G-protein coupled receptors superfamily of receptors.[3]
- Calcium-sensing receptors sense change in extracellular concentration of ionized calcium.[4]
Pathogenesis
- There is deficiency of parathyroid hormone in hypoparathyroidism.
- Deficiency of parathyroid hormone causes body to decrease:
- Reabsorption of calcium from bone.
- Excretion of phosphate.
- Reabsorbtion of calcium from distal tubules.
- Vitamin D mediated absorption of calcium from intestine.
- This leads to hypocalcemia.

Post-surgical Hypoparathyroidism
- Anterior neck surgery most commonly cause hypoparathyroidism. Majority of time this hypoparathyroidism is transient i.e. it resolves within 6 months.[5][6][7]
The features of hypoparathyroidism should persist for atleast 6 month after surgery to be diagnosed as chronic hypoparathyroidism.
- 30–60% Patients undergoing total thyroidectomy develops hypocalcaemia within 24 hours as an initial manifestation of postoperative parathyroid failure. About 60%-70% of these cases resolve within 4–6 weeks after surgery. Remaining cases progress to develop protracted hypoparathyroidism requiring continuous treatment. Around 15–25% of patients with protracted HypoPT progress to chronic hypoparathyroidism.[8]
- Factors favorring recovery from protracted hypoparathyroidism include:
- Number of parathyroid glands remaining in situ
- Serum calcium level at this stage : There is high rate of recovery in individuals whose calcium levels are normal to elevated one month postoperatively.
