    Abstract:
    This study was designed to follow the evolution of serum 1,25(OH)2D after surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism. Ten patients were studied before and for up to 85 d after removal of a single parathyroid adenoma. Blood and 24 h urine were obtained at various time points, for the measurement of serum or urinary phosphate and calcium indices. Before surgery, serum calcium (2.91 +/- 0.06 mmol/l; mean +/- SEM), parathyroid hormone (354 +/- 47 pg/ml) and 1,25(OH)2D (61.2 +/- 7.8 pg/ml) were elevated while serum phosphate (1.01 +/- 0.07 mmol/l) tended to be low. Relative hypoparathyroidism was evident for up to 5 d after surgery with the lowest value for serum parathyroid hormone (41 +/- 16 pg/ml) on day 1, serum calcium (2.12 +/- 0.06 mmol/l) on day 3 and highest value for serum phosphate (1.41 +/- 0.13 mmol/l) on day 5. As expected, serum 1,25(OH)2D levels decreased to 35.9 +/- 4.2 pg/ml 24 h after surgery. Stabilization of serum and urinary parameters to normal values was seen between day 5 and day 27; the only exception was serum 1,25(OH)2D, which increased again at day 27 to 57.6 +/- 5.0 pg/ml, a value as high as that before surgery. It was still elevated at day 50 (58.3 +/- 4.3 pg/ml), but returned towards normal values in three out of four patients (44 +/- 3.9 pg/ml) by day 80. No variation in 25(OH)D or 24,25(OH)2D was seen throughout the study. 1,25(OH)2D values could be related to serum parathyroid hormone values before surgery (r = 0.659, P less than 0.05) but not after. The secondary increase in serum 1,25(OH)2D could not be related to variations in serum calcium, phosphate, parathyroid hormone or diet. Further studies will be required to explain this phenomenon.
