Abstract
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is associated with a poorer quality of life. The role of neuropsychiatric symptoms in asymptomatic patients who do not display classical features of PHPT remains undefined. It is unclear whether parathyroidectomy provides immediate benefit beyond the long-term risk reduction of adverse effects. The aim of the study is to assess the effect on quality of life in patients with asymptomatic PHPT undergoing parathyroidectomy.
