Three cases of primary hyperparathyroidism in pregnancy are described. Patient 1 developed left thigh pain and lower abdominal pain at 34 weeks' gestation. Patient 2 had right flank pain and lower abdominal pain at 32 weeks' gestation. Both patients accepted medical therapy initially, which resulted in poor control of hypercalcemia. Patient 1 delayed her parathyroidectomy until the postpartum period; she had maternal hypercalcemia and neonatal hypocalcemia. Patient 2 accepted parathyroidectomy at 32 weeks' gestation with an uneventful outcome for both mother and baby. Patient 3 was asymptomatic; her hyperparathyroidism was diagnosed postpartum after neonatal hypocalcemia and agreed to parathyroidectomy. All 3 patients had a parathyroid adenoma.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
