25 Hydroxyvitamin D

1. The elimination half-time of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in plasma was estimated after intravenous injection of the radioactively labelled metabolite in seven patients with primary hyperparathyroidism before and after excision of a parathyroid adenoma. 2. The elimination half-time of 25-hydroxyvitamin D was significantly shortened in primary hyperparathyroidism and reverted towards normal after parathyroidectomy. 3. The increased metabolic clearance of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in primary hyperparathyroidism was accounted for by an increased excretion of vitamin D-derived inactivation products in the faeces. 4. Enhanced hepatic inactivation of 25-hydroxyvitamin D may be important in the development of vitamin D deficiency in primary hyperparathyroidism.

Circulating Levels

Background: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is associated with reduced plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D (P-25OHD) and usually increased plasma 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (P-1,25(OH)2D). Parathyroid tissue expresses the vitamin D receptor and it is thought that circulating 1,25(OH)2D participate in the regulation of parathyroid cell proliferation, differentiation and secretion. Aim: To investigate the relations between circulating levels of 1,25(OH)2D and 25OHD respectively and parathyroid adenoma weight (AW), plasma-parathyroid hormone (P-PTH) and PTH secretion expressed as P-PTH/AW. Design: Cross-sectional study. Material: One hundred and seventy-one consecutive hypercalcaemic caucasian patients aged 19–87 years (median 63, 84% females) with surgically proven parathyroid adenoma. Results: A weak positive correlation was found between P-25OHD and P-1,25(OH)2D (r = 0.24, P < 0.005). AW depended on sex and body mass index. Following adjustment, it was correlated positively to P-PTH, calcium (Ca) and alkaline phosphatase (AP) and inversely to plasma phosphate in a multiple regression model. AW was not associated with vitamin D metabolites. Preoperative P-PTH correlated positively to plasma levels of Ca and AP, but inversely to phosphate and 25OHD (P < 0.001) levels. P-PTH was not associated with P-1,25(OH)2D (P = 0.65). The P-PTH:AW ratio correlated inversely to P-25OHD (P < 0.05), but showed no relations to plasma levels of Ca, phosphate or 1,25(OH)2D (P = 0.22). Conclusion: In this material, low levels of 25OHD were related to higher levels of P-PTH and higher PTH:AW ratios in patients with PHPT suggesting that vitamin D deficiency increase PTH secretion activity. Neither PTH secretion nor AW was associated with circulating levels of 1,25(OH)2D.

Background: We postulated that the preoperative correction of vitamin D levels can significantly reduce the incidence of hunger bone syndrome among patients undergoing parathyroidectomy for primary hyperparathyroidism. Methods: We performed a prospective, randomized, open-label study on 102 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and coexisting vitamin D deficiency who were scheduled to undergo parathyroidectomy. Patients were divided into the following two groups: group I which included 52 patients who did not receive preoperative vitamin D supplementation; and group II which included 50 patients who received cholecalciferol 1000–2000 IU daily or 50000 IU weekly until they achieve vitamin D levels >20 ng/mL (group IIa = 25 patients) or vitamin D levels >30 ng/mL (group IIb = 25 patients). Results: The incidence of hunger bone syndrome in group IIb was lower than group I and group IIa (8% versus 16% versus 23%, respectively); however, this difference did not reach the level of statistical significance (p = 0.22). Patients with hunger bone syndrome were significantly younger and had higher serum phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, magnesium, and bone mineral density at baseline than patients without hunger bone syndrome. On the other hand, patients with hunger bone syndrome had significantly lower 25-hydroxyvitamin D at baseline than patients without hunger bone syndrome (p = 0.001). The ROC curve showed that the baseline level of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D was not an independent discriminator of hunger bone syndrome (area under curve = 0.21 (95% CI: 0.06–0.34); p = 0.011). Conclusion: Preoperative course of vitamin D supplements has no preventive role on the postoperative incidence of hunger bone syndrome among patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and coexisting vitamin D deficiency undergoing parathyroidectomy.

Introduction/backgroundVitamin D deficiency further increases circulating parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT), with potential detrimental effects on bone mass.MethodsThis was an observational clinical study in consecutive conservatively treated postmenopausal women (n=40) with pHPT and coexistent 25-hydroxyvitamin D deficiency (25OHD ≤50 nmol/l (≤20 ng/ml)). Patients who showed an increase in serum 25OHD above the threshold of vitamin D deficiency (>50 nmol/l; n=28) using treatment with various commonly prescribed vitamin D preparations were, for the purposes of statistical analyses, allocated to the treatment group. Patients who were retrospectively identified as having received no treatment with vitamin D and/or remained vitamin D deficient were considered as non-responders/controls (n=12). Adjusted calcium (adjCa), PTH and 25OHD concentrations were monitored in all subjects up to 54 months (mean observation period of 18±2 months).ResultsProlonged increased vitamin D intake, regardless of the source (serum 25OHD, increase from 32.2±1.7 nmol/l at baseline to 136.4±11.6 nmol/l, P<0.0001), significantly reduced serum PTH (13.3±1.1 vs 10.5±1.0 pmol/l, P=0.0001), with no adverse effects on adjCa levels (2.60±0.03 vs 2.60±0.02 mmol/l, P=0.77) and renal function tests (P>0.73). In contrast, serum PTH remained unchanged (15.8±2.6 vs 16.3±1.9 pmol/l, P=0.64) in patients who remained vitamin D deficient, with a significant difference between groups in changes of PTH (P=0.0003). Intrapartial correlation analyses showed an independent negative correlation of changes in 25OHD with PTH levels (ric=−0.41, P=0.014).ConclusionsProlonged treatment with vitamin D in various commonly prescribed preparations appeared to be safe and significantly reduced PTH levels by 21%.

Context: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is reported to be associated with an increased frequency of hypertension, however, information in this regard is sparse in relation to normocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism (NPHPT). Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the association between NPHPT and blood pressure. Design, Setting, and Patients: We retrospectively enrolled 940 patients who visited the Fujian Provincial Hospital between September 2010 and December 2013 with a measured serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcium level. Among them, 11 patients were diagnosed with NPHPT, while 296 cases with normal PTH and albumin-adjusted serum calcium. Main Outcomes Measures: Systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), intact serum PTH, and serum calcium were recorded. Results: There were no significant differences between subjects identified with NPHPT and those with normal PTH in terms of age, sex, body mass index, serum calcium, 25-Hydroxyvitamin D, serum creatinine, fasting plasma glucose, triglycerides, total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein, and low density lipoprotein. The subjects with a diagnosis of NPHPT had higher levels of SBP (141.9 ± 20.2 vs 131.2 ± 16.5, P = .041) and DBP (85.2 ± 12.4 vs 76.8 ± 10.3, P = .026) than the subjects in the cohort with normal PTH. After adjustment for all potential confounders, risks (odds ratios and 95% confidence interval) of SBP and DBP in NPHPT patients were 1.035 (1.000, 1.071) and 1.063 (1.004, 1.125), respectively (P &lt; .05). Conclusions: The NPHPT had higher risk of high blood pressure than subjects with normal PTH. It is worth considering the necessity of more aggressive therapeutic intervention aimed to normalize PTH even if patients with NPHPT continue to be normocalcemic.

Cystic Adenoma

Abstract Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is defined as excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH) originating from the parathyroid gland. The most common cause is a single parathyroid adenoma which is typically solid. Cystic parathyroid adenomas (CPA) are the cause of about 1–2% of cases of primary hyperparathyroidism. It is known that cystic parathyroid adenomas are a result of degeneration of an existing parathyroid adenoma. SestaMIBI is an imaging study based on uptake of radioactive technetium99 and used to localize parathyroid adenomas. We describe an unusual case of severe hypercalcemia secondary to 99mTc sestaMIBI negative atypical parathyroid cystic adenoma. A 56-year-old male presented to our facility with nausea and vomiting. His past medical history included hypertension and hepatitis C with no history of fractures or kidney disease. Physical examination was normal. Upon admission the patient was afebrile with blood pressure of 170/120 mmHg and heart rate of 62 bpm. Chemistry showed Calcium of 14.5 mg/dL (8.6–10.2mg/dL), phosphorus 2.2 (2.7–4.5) mh/dL, magnesium 1.8 (1.7–2.6)mg/dL, intact PTH of 375 (15–65) pg/mL, PTH-related peptide &lt;2.0 pmol/L(&lt;2 pmol/L), 25-OH vitamin D of 19 ng/ml (30–80), Creatinine 1.22 (0.7–1.2)mg/dL, alkaline phosphatase 95 (40–129) units/L. He was started on aggressive hydration, calcitonin 4 units/kg, 4 mg of IV Zolendroninc acid. Neck sonogram revealed a large, complex, predominantly anechoic lesion with solid vascular components and thick internal septations in the inferior and medial aspect of the right thyroid lobe measuring 3 x 2 x 5.5 cm. Findings were confirmed with CT of the neck. Since Sestamibi scan (planar and SPECT/CT) did not show uptake in parathyroid glands, the cyst was thought to be of thyroid origin. Fine needle aspiration was not able to detect cellular material, but PTH was &gt;100 pg/ml on the FNA sample. Otolaryngology service was consulted for parathyroidectomy. During the surgical treatment, the right upper parathyroid gland was removed with no changes in serum PTH. Next, the cystic lesion was removed with normalization of serum PTH (from 218 pg/ml to 35.2 pg/ml respectively). Intraoperative frozen section analysis was read as a cystic parathyroid adenoma. The final pathology report revealed cystic parathyroid tissue favoring parathyroid adenoma with focal atypia. Hypercalcemia resolved. Conclusions: Atypical cystic parathyroid adenomas are a rare cause of PHPT. 90% of parathyroid cysts are nonfunctional. Above mention is a case of a patient presenting with hypercalcemic crisis secondary to cystic parathyroid adenoma, which posed a diagnostic challenge as both neck ultrasound and 99mTc sestaMIBI scan were inconclusive. These findings should trigger suspicion for functional parathyroid lesions. Cystic components should be evaluated for PTH levels and if significantly elevated should be treated as a parathyroid adenoma.
