RESUMENEl hiperparatiroidismo primario (HPTP) se caracteriza por una hipersecreción autónoma de paratohormona (PTH), lo que provoca hipercalcemia e hipercalciuria, con afectación ósea, renal y de otras partes del organismo, en grado variable. El HPTP tiene una prevalencia de 1 en 1000 en la población general y se presenta con mayor frecuencia en mujeres que en hombres. Es infrecuente su presentación en el embarazo, y sus complicaciones derivadas de la hipercalcemia pueden afectar tanto a la madre como al feto. Presentamos el caso de una paciente de 37 años, cursando un embarazo de 10 semanas, que ingresó al servicio con los diagnósticos de nefrocalcinosis y pielonefritis aguda, a la que se diagnosticó un hiperparatiroidismo primario, cuya etiología fue un adenoma paratiroideo único. PALABRAS CLAVE: Hiperparatiroidismo primario, embarazo SUMMARYPrimary hyperparathyroidism (HPTP) is a disorder characterized by elevated levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH), which leads to hypercalcemia and hypercalciuria, with variable osseous, renal and other systems affectation. HPTP has a prevalence of 1:1000 in general population and is more frequent in women than men. It is very rare during pregnancy, and its complications are produced by hypercalcemia and they can affect the mother and the fetus. We present the case of a 37 year old woman, with a 10+2 weeks pregnancy that was admitted in our Hospital with nephrocalcinosis and urinary tract infection, whom was diagnosed primary hyperparathyroidism, whose etiology was a single parathyroid adenoma.
