[Primary hyperparathyroidism. Our experience with 30 cases].
The authors analysed thirty cases of hyperparathyroidism seen between 1969 and 1975 at Centre Hospitalier Universitaire at Poitiers. They noted the similarity of their observations with those which have generally been made in this condition. The only peculiarities of this study were a low incidence of calculi and a particularly high incidence of chance discovery by routine blood calcium measurement. The diagnostic value of blood calcium levels and blood citrate levels is confirmed in the same way as the advantage of a quantitative bone biopsy even although a few false positives limit the specificty of the test.
