Primary hyperparathyroidism unmasked by donor nephrectomy.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A patient who was normocalcaemic before donation of a kidney to her son developed hypercalcaemia in the immediate postoperative period, which was subsequently found to be due to a parathyroid adenoma. It is assumed that the hypercalcaemia was unmasked by the reduction in glomerular filtration rate following the nephrectomy.

Background and purpose: Laparoscopic donor nephrectomy is an appropriate alternative for open donor nephrectomy in kidney transplant. The latter has been applied in most health centers for 50 years and it has been proven that unilateral nephrechtomy (laparotomy) is safe for the doner and so the remaining kidney can handle its function well. Since the former method for the kidney doner has been ...
متن کاملEmphysematous pyelonephritis in a diabetic patient with hyperparathyroidism.
A 57-year-old diabetic woman was referred to hospital for high fever. Her HbA1c was 8.7% and white blood cell was 23,300/μL. Urinalysis suggested urinary tract infection. Computed tomography revealed a markedly enlarged right kidney with parenchymal gas and obstruction of the right ureter by a stone (Picture 1). After a right nephrectomy, she showed hypercalcemia (11.2 to 11.8 mg/dL) and an ele...
متن کاملRare Undiagnosed Primary Amyloidosis Unmasked During Surgical Treatment of Primary Hyperparathyroidism: A Case Report
Primary amyloidosis (PA) is a protein deposition disorder that presents with localized or multisystemic disease. The incidence is low in the general public, ranging from three to eight cases per million, and with nonspecific presenting symptoms typically occurring later in life. Due to late presentation, substantial and irreversible damage has usually already occurred by the time of the diagnos...
متن کاملUtilisation of a cryptic non-canonical donor splice site of the gene encoding PARAFIBROMIN is associated with familial isolated primary hyperparathyroidism.
More than 99% of all splice sites conform to consensus sequences that usually include the invariant dinucleotides gt and ag at the 5' and 3' ends of the introns, respectively. We report on the utilisation of a non-consensus (non-canonical) donor splice site within exon 1 of the HRPT2 gene in familial isolated primary hyperparathyroidism (FIHP). HRPT2 mutations are more frequently associated wit...

More than 99% of all splice sites conform to consensus sequences that usually include the invariant dinucleotides gt and ag at the 59 and 39 ends of the introns, respectively. We report on the utilisation of a non-consensus (non-canonical) donor splice site within exon 1 of the HRPT2 gene in familial isolated primary hyperparathyroidism (FIHP).
