above upper limits of normal

• Cr.Cl reduced to 60 ml/min by MDRD equation no.7

• Osteoporosis by T-score

• History of kidney stones or fractures

J Clin Endocrinol Metab 94: 366–372, 2009

Symptomatic PHPT

Cohort studies : after parathyroidectomy

• BMD & fracture rate : improve

• Cognitive function : improve

• Kidney stones : incidence declines after surgery.

• CVD & premature death : decrease

Sestamibi scan

• Noninvasive

• Most popular

• Localize abnormal

parathyroid glands

• Quality varies

• Nonlocalizing sestamibi

-Small parathyroid gl.

-Coexistent thyroid dz.

Secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism2°hyperparathyroidism

•Severe chronic kidney disease

•Usually have low or normal serum calcium concentrations

•Prolonged disease, may develop hypercalcemia

'Adynamic bone disease‘

3°hyperparathyroidism

•Advanced renal failure

•Due to progression from appropriate parathyroid

hyperplasia to autonomous overproduction of PTH

UTD18.1

Milk-alkali syndrome

• Triad of hypercalcemia, metabolic alkalosis, and

renal insufficiency

• Associated with the ingestion of large amounts of

calcium and absorbable alkali

• Typically occurs in the setting of excess calcium

carbonate supplementation to treat osteoporosis

or dyspepsia

UTD18.1

Milk-alkali syndrome

• Metabolic alkalosis can directly stimulating calcium reabsorption in the distal tubule, thereby diminishing

calcium excretion

• Calcium-induced decline in renal function, due to renal

vasoconstriction

• Chronic hypercalcemia, renal structural injury, can also contribute to the inability to excrete the excess calcium

• Renal function usually returns to baseline after cessation of milk or calcium carbonate intake, but irreversible injury

can occur in patients who have prolonged hypercalcemia

UTD18.1

Milk-alkali syndrome

• What remains unexplained is the apparent

difference in sensitivity of individuals to increased

intake of calcium and alkali

• Some individuals may not suppress

calcitriol levels in response to large doses of

calcium carbonate

UTD18.1

UTD18.1

Treatment of hypercalcemia

• Saline therapy

• Loop diuretic

• Initiated routinely once fluid repletion had been

achieved to further increase urinary calcium

excretion

• Calcitonin

• Bisphosphonate

• Dialysis

UTD18.1

Calcitonin

• Reduce serum calcium by increasing renal calcium excretion

• Decreasing bone reabsorption via interference with osteoclast maturation

• Salmon calcitonin (4 international units/kg) is usually

administered IM or SC every 12 hour

• Limited to first 48 hours, even with repeated doses,

indicating the development of tachyphylaxis, perhaps due to receptor downregulation

UTD18.1

Bisphosphonates

• Intravenous zoledronic acid or pamidronate

Side effects

• Flu-like symptoms

(fever, arthralgias, myalgia, fatigue, bone pain)

• Ocular inflammation (uveitis)

• Hypocalcemia

• Hypophosphatemia

• Impaired renal function/nephrotic syndrome

• Osteonecrosis of the jaw

UTD18.1

Glucocorticoid

Responsible for the hypercalcemia associated …

•Excess ingestion of vitamin D

•Endogenous overproduction of calcitriol

(1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D)

• Chronic granulomatous diseases

eg, sarcoidosis

• Lymphoma

UTD18.1

Hypocalcemia

• Clinical manifestations of hypocalcemia depend

upon the severity and chronicity of hypocalcemia

• Each 1 g/dL reduction in the serum albumin

concentration will lower the total calcium

concentration by approximately 0.8 mg/dL

Clinical manifestations of hypocalcemiaAcuteNeuromuscular irritability (Tetany) •Paresthesias (peri-oral, extremities) •Muscle twitching •Carpopedal spasm •Trousseau's sign •Chvostek's sign •Seizures •Laryngospasm •Bronchospasm

Chronic•Ectopic calcification (basal ganglia) •Extrapyramidal signs •Parkinsonism •Dementia

Cardiac •Prolonged QT interval •Hypotension •Heart failure •Arrhythmia •Papilledema

• Subcapsular cataracts • Abnormal dentition • Dry skin

Major causes of hypocalcemia

Low PTH (hypoparathyroidism) Genetic disorders •Abnormal parathyroid gland development

•Abnormal PTH synthesis •Activating mutations of calcium sensing receptor (autosomal dominant hypocalcemia or sporadic isolated hypoparathyroidism) Post-surgical :

thyroidectomy, parathyroidectomy, radical neck dissection Autoimmune•Autoimmune polyglandular syndrome (associated with chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis and primary adrenal insufficiency)

•Isolated hypoparathyroidism due to activating antibodies to calcium sensing receptor Infiltration of the parathyroid gland :granulomatous, iron overload, metastases

Radiation induced destruction parathyroid glands Hungry bone syndrome (post parathyroidectomy) HIV infection

• Pseudohypoparathyroidism • Hypomagnesemia

•Renal disease •Loss of calcium from the circulation

• Hyperphosphatemia • Tumor lysis • Acute pancreatitis • Osteoblastic metastases • Acute respiratory alkalosis • Sepsis or acute severe illness

Drugs

•Inhibitors of bone resorption (bisphosphonates, calcitonin), especially in vitamin D deficiency

•Cinacalcet

•Calcium chelators (EDTA, citrate, phosphate)

•Foscarnet (due to intravascular complexing with calcium)

•Phenytoin (due to conversion of vitamin D to inactive metabolites)

•Fluoride poisoning

Disorders of magnesium metabolism

•Hypomagnesemia can reduce PTH secretion or cause PTH resistance and is therefore associated with normal, low, or high PTH levels

UTD18.1

Approach to hypocalcemia

• Measure serum albumin

• Family history of hypocalcemia genetic cause

• Chronic hypocalcemia • Activating mutation of calcium sensing receptor

• Pseudohypoparathyroidism

Pharmacotherapy

Adequate Calcium and vitamin D intake

•NOF 2008 : -Ca 1200 mg per day,

-Vitamin D 800-1000 IU per day

•Thai :

-Ca ; 19-50 yr : 1000 mg per day, >50 yr : 800 mg per day

-Vitamin D : 400-800 IU per day

Which drugs should be used?

• Antiresorptive agents

• Bisphosphonate

• Calcitonin

• Hormone replacement therapy

• Selective estrogen receptor modulators

• Bone formative (anabolic) agents

• Teriparatide (1-34 PTH)

• Double action

• Strontium ranelate

• Targeting of bisphosphonates to bone, localized

release during osteoclastic bone resorption

• Intestinal absorption is low

• Taken with a glass of tap water and ≥ 30 min

before food or other fluids

• 40-60% absorbed bisphosphonate not bound to bone & not metabolized

• Eliminated unchanged by renal excretion

Bisphosphonate

Flu-like symptoms

• Bisphosphonates IV can block FPP production in

monocytes

• Accumulation of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP)

• Because IPP is also a bacterial antigen,

peripheral blood T cells recognize this as

bacterial infection

• Releasing TNF-α and IFN-γ, increasing IL-6 and

CRP, and causing flu-like symptoms

• Associated with 1st bisphosphonate doses

Esophagitis and ulceration

• Before absorption, bisphosphonates taken orally

can bind to gastric cells

• Inhibition of FPP synthase rapidly leads to cell death.

• This may explain the ability of orally administered

N-BPs to cause esophagitis and ulceration

Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (ONJ)

• Rarely with oral bisphosphonates

• Most cases of Pt cancer with IV bisphosphonates

• Risk factors

-Cancer

-Concomitant therapies

(chemotherapy, radiotherapy and corticosteroids)

-Poor oral hygiene

-Comorbid eg. anemia, coagulopathy, infection

-Duration of exposure, and older age CKD

Osteonecrosis

of Jaw

Prevention (recommend)

• Before use bisphosphonates :removal of all foci of

dental infection.

• Routine dental care

• Regular oral examinations

Osteomalacia

• Osteomalacia : disorder of mineralization of newly formed matrix in adults

• Rickets : disorder of defective mineralization of cartilage

in the epiphyseal growth plates of children, leading to widening of the ends of long bones, growth retardation,

and skeletal deformities.

• Asymptomatic and present radiologically as osteopenia

• Proximal muscle weakness • Muscle wasting, hypotonia, and discomfort with movement

• Waddling gait

• Bone pain • lower spine, pelvis, lower extremities

• may be associated with tenderness to palpation

• dull & aching, aggravated by activity & weight bearing

• Fractures • may occur with little or no trauma

• ribs, vertebrae, long bones

• Skeletal deformities are infrequent in adults.

• Abnormal spinal curvature or deformity of the thorax or pelvis appears only in severe osteomalacia of long duration

• Looser zones : pseudofractures or narrow radiolucent lines

Two theories have been proposed:1. Stress fractures that have been repaired by the laying down of inadequately mineralized osteoid2. Result of erosion by arterial pulsations.
