  • Title: [Primary hyperparathyroidism in childhood and adolescence].
    Author: Baleva R, Todorov T.
    Journal: Vutr Boles; 1982; 21(2):137-42. PubMed ID: 7101884.
    Abstract:
    Three children with primary hyperparathyroidism, confirmed at operation, are reported. The generalized skeletal changes with pathological fractures are leading in two of them, necessitating a long-term orthopedic treatment. Big solitary adenomas were found at operation. The disease, in the third child, had the course of nephrolithiasis. Hyperplasia of all four parathyroid bodies with light cells was established at operation. The biochemical deviations are typical in all three children undergone operations: hypercalcemia, hypophosphatemia, elevated alkaline phosphatase with increased excretion of calcium and phosphorus in urine.
