Hyperparathyroidism and Asthenia. A New Deal?
Journal Title: International Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
The profile of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) changed profoundly over the course of the twentieth century. The highly symptomatic forms reported in the 1960s have progressively been replaced by forms with few symptoms and in some cases totally asymptomatic forms. As of 1991, with the increasing frequency of these new forms, several consensus meetings designed to define the criteria for establishing the operability of minimally-symptomatic hyperparathyroidism have been organized [1].
