Q

What does an alkalosis state do to your calcium levels

A

PTH is high
Bound calcium is increased
Free calcium decreased

16
Q

What is the gland mostly involved in parathyroid adenoma

A

Right lower parathyroid gland

17
Q

How does the tc99 parathyroid scan show in parathyroid adenoma

A

There is uptake

18
Q

What glands are involved in parathyroid hyperplasia

A

All four so very little fat present

19
Q

Symptoms of primary hyperparathyroidism

A

Bone pain
Renal stones
Abdominal groans
Physics moans

Metastatic calcification a to several areas

20
Q

What does primary hyperparathyroidism lead to in the bone

A

Brown tumors - bulbous swellings

21
Q

What are brown tumors made of

A

Osteoclasts and fibroblast form tumor like lesions resembling giant cell tumors of bone - have hermosoderin

22
Q

What does primary hyperparathyroidism do to the kidney

A

Calcium oxalate renal stones - nephrolothiasis -mc

Nephrocalcinosis - calcification of renal tubules -no ADH -nephrogenic DI

23
Q

What is Nephrocalcinosis - and what does it lead to

A

In 1 para-hyper calcification of renal tubules -no ADH -nephrogenic DI

24
Most common complain in 1 hyperparathyroidism and why
Constipation because gastrin decreases GI motility
25
Mc presentation in 1hyperparathyrodism
Nephrolothiasis
26
Osteitis fibrosa cystica ?
1hyper parathyroidism cystic and hemorrhagic bone lesions Found in jaw and fingers Eventually rupture blood vessels - leads to brown tumor
27
1hyper PTH bone X-ray
Subperosteal bone resorption | Salt and pepper appearance
28
Cns effects of primary hyper parathyroidism
Depression and seizures
29
Cvs effects of primary hyper parathyroidism
Short qt interval Diastolic hypertension
30
Eye effects of primary hyper parathyroidism
Band keratopathy in the limbus of eyes due to metastatic calcification a
31
What does Ca high low PTH mean And what causes it
Secondary Hypercalcemia Malignancy -scc, rcc Sarcoidosis-vit d hyper Thiazides Hupervotaminosis
32
What does multiple myeloma secrete from plasma cells to cause secondary Hypercalcemia
Il-1
33
Sarcoidosis cause secondary Hypercalcemia by
macrophages in Granuloma secreting 1-alpha hydroxylase leading to hypervotaminosis D -absorb too much calcium so PTH down
34
What does vitamin d do
Increase Jejunum calcium absorption
35
Lab for secondary hyperparathyroidism
Decreased calcium ,increased PTH increased phosphate
36
Mcc of 2 hyperparathyroidism
Chronic renal failure
37
Sequence of 2 hyperparathyroidism
CRD causes increased phosphate which increased PTH which decrease calcium
38
Renal osteodystrophy is what and where is it found
Seconds hyperparathyroidism where excess PTH causes bone lesions
39
Tertiary par hyperthyrodism is after what
Renal transplant or efficient renal dialysis where stimulated parathyroid glands remain active
