Intravenous pyelograms were performed on 128 women who had been exposed in utero to diethylstilbestrol (DES). For comparison, intravenous pyelograms (IVPs) of 48 non-exposed women were reviewed: No difference in urinary tract abnormalities was noted. There was no significant increase in urinary tract abnormalities in women with upper genital tract abnormalities demonstrated by hysterosalpingogram as compared to a group of women whose x-rays of the uterus were normal.

At present, primary hyperparathyroidism is most often discovered in an asymptomatic patient, but can sometimes be revealed by a renal or bone complications. In all cases, a full work-up is recommended, with assessment of renal function (glomerular filtration rate), 24-hour calciuria, screening for risk factors for lithiasis, and renal and urinary tract imaging (ultrasound or CT scan) to look for stones or nephrocalcinosis. Bone densitometry, with measurements of the spine, femur and radius, is the recommended reference test for demineralization.
