Abstract: Hyperparathyroidism, renal osteodystrophy and ectopic calcification, caused by hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia, are important complication in renal dysfunction, especially in end stage renal disease. Because it is the reason for reducing the survival rate and quality of life in these patients, it is important to control them from early stage in renal dysfunction.
