Abstract:
The pattern of incidence and clin ic al presentation of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) collected during the past 45 years were analysed. It showed that most of PHPT patients were young or mid- aged, and female patients were somewhat more than male patients. The duration of illness was longer and symptoms were more severe. The number of post-menopausa l female patients was increased in recent ten years.
