Chapter 15: RECURRENT OR PERSISTENT PRIMARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM, PARATHYROMATOSIS.

Ann Endocrinol (Paris)

January 2025

Department of Endocrinology Diabetes Nutrition, Hôpital Robert-Debré, CHU de Reims, F-51100 Reims, France. Electronic address:

Persistent primary hyperparathyroidism is defined as the persistence or recurrence of hypercalcemia within 6 months of parathyroid surgery. Recurrent primary hyperparathyroidism is defined as the recurrence of primary hyperparathyroidism more than 6 months after an initially curative parathyroidectomy. In these situations, it is essential to rule out differential diagnoses, and in particular secondary hyperparathyroidism and familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia.

Chapter 10: WHAT PARATHYROID IMAGING IS REQUIRED FOR HYPERPARATHYROIDISM?

Ann Endocrinol (Paris)

January 2025

Endocrinology Federation, Hôpital Louis Pradel, 28 Avenue doyen Lépine, 69500 Bron, Hospices Civils de Lyon and Université Lyon 1, France. Electronic address:

In over 80% of cases, primary hyperparathyroidism results from hypersecretion of PTH by a single parathyroid adenoma. Multi-glandular involvement, combining adenoma and/or hyperplasia in varying proportions, is also possible, although less frequent. When the diagnosis of hyperparathyroidism is certain and surgery is envisaged, imaging is useful for locating the hyperfunctioning gland or glands.

Parathyroid adenoma is the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism and rarely reaches huge sizes. As the gland enlarges it may exhibit atypical morphology and extension to the mediastinum which may complicate the excision of the tumor while preserving the capsular integrity. We present a 35-year-old male patient who was referred to our department with a complaint of severe hypercalcemia.

NHERF2 regulatory function in signal transduction pathways and control of gene expression: Implications for cellular homeostasis and breast cancer.

Arch Med Res

January 2025

Programa de Investigación de Cancer de Mama, Instituto de Investigaciones Biomédicas, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Mexico City, Mexico; Departamento de Medicina Genómica y Toxicología Ambiental, Instituto de Investigaciones Biomédicas, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Mexico City, Mexico. Electronic address:

Na⁺/H⁺ exchanger regulatory factor 2 (NHERF2) is a nucleocytoplasmic protein initially identified as a regulator of membrane-bound sodium-hydrogen exchanger 3 (NHE3). In the cytoplasm, NHERF2 regulates the activity of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), including beta-2 adrenergic receptor (2β-AR), lysophosphatidic acid receptor 2, and parathyroid hormone type 1 receptor. In the nucleus, NHERF2 acts as a coregulator of transcription factors such as sex-determining region Y protein (SRY), involved in male sex determination, and estrogen receptor alpha (ERα).

Objective: To assess the impact of parathyroid gland autotransplantation on the restoration of parathyroid function in patients who are hypoparathyroid after thyroidectomy.

Background Data: Hypoparathyroidism post-thyroidectomy arises when all parathyroid glands are devascularized or injured. Autotransplantation of compromised parathyroids aims to preserve their function and prevent permanent hypoparathyroidism.
