Diagnostic Work Up

Secondary hyperparathyroidism is defined and its pathophysiology, delineated. Key components of the diagnostic work-up, medical management, and indications for surgery are described. The operative approach and controversy on extent of parathyroidectomy are discussed. This review contains 3 figures, 1 tables, and 24 references.  Key Words: autotransplantation, calciphylaxis, chronic renal failure, cryopreservation, hungry bone syndrome, hypocalcemia, secondary hyperparathyroidism, subtotal parathyroidectomy, total parathyroidectomy

Calciphylaxis is a rare disorder in patients with chronic renal failure that is characterized by ischemic necrotic skin lesions. The prognosis is grave and mortality is high (80%). The precise mechanism of calciphylaxis is still unknown, but in addition to chronic renal failure, elevated parathyroid hormone levels appear to play a role. The role of parathyroidectomy in treating affected patients is questionable. In this article, we describe the case of a patient with chronic renal failure who developed rapidly progressive subcutaneous calcifications and ulcerations in the lower extremities. These lesions regressed following subtotal parathyroidectomy. We also review the literature on calciphylaxis, with a focus on treatment options.
