Abstract

Decreased renal function has been consistently included among factors prompting recommendation for surgery in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). However, most retrospective studies addressing this issue did not show an improvement in renal function after parathyroidectomy (PTX). The aim of this study was to investigate changes in renal function after PTX in PHPT patients subdivided according to renal function at diagnosis.
