Disrupted tubular parathyroid hormone/parathyroid hormone receptor signaling and damaged tubular cell viability possibly trigger postsurgical kidney injury in patients with advanced hyperparathyroidism

Parathyroidectomy (PTX) that alleviates clinical manifestations of advanced hyperparathyroidism, including hypercalcemia and hypophosphatemia, is considered the best protection from calcium overload in the kidney. However, little is known about the relationship between postsurgical robust parathyroid hormone (PTH) reduction and perisurgical renal tubular cell viability. Post-PTX kidney function is still a crucial issue for primary...
