Abstract :
The incidence of primary
hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) in India is 2.5/1000
individuals. The major cause for PHPT is parathyroid
adenoma. To arrive at the correct diagnosis, clinical
setting, biochemical and radiological investigations, the
status of other glands assessed intra-operatively and
finally histopathological confirmation is essential. This
case report aimed to present primary
hyperparathyroidism from parathyroid adenoma
causing multiple episodes of nephrolithiasis and its
management.
