Abstract

Primary hyperparathyroidism is a disease that causes hypercalcemia and abnormal bone metabolism due to an increase in parathyroid hormones, and the occurrence rate of bone fracturing is higher in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism. Parathyroid hormones have recently frequently been used as an osteogenesis catalyst treatment for osteoporosis in the elderly. This research study examined the case study that was experienced on the diagnosis and treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism caused by adenoma and extreme hypercalcemia that was discovered in menopausal women with bone fractures and extreme osteoporosis.
