Does renal function improve after parathyroidectomy in primary hyperparathyroidism?

CONCLUSIONS: PHPT was asymptomatic in most patients who underwent surgery. Hypercalcaemia and nephrolithiasis were the most common indications of parathyroidectomy in asymptomatic patients. MIBI scan was the most useful localisation method. Surgical treatment of PHPT is followed by renal function impairment, which persists after the first week post-PTX.
