- W3157693271 abstract "Abstract Introduction: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is rarely diagnosed in pregnancy and if left untreated has the potential to lead to serious maternal and neonatal complications. We describe a case of PHPT with associated complicated pre-eclampsia. Clinical Case29-year-old primigravida admitted at 33 + 6 weeks with fatigue, 10lbs weight gain and elevated BP. Labs revealed potassium 2.9 (3.5-5.2mmol/L), corrected serum calcium (Ca)11.62 (8.4-10.2mg/dL), ionized calcium 1.69 (1.15-1.33mmol/L), PTH 163.9 (15-65pg/mL) and vitamin D 24.6 (30-100ng/mL). Other labs were normal. Urine studies showed 315mg/24h proteinuria and urine calcium of 129.5 mg/24hrs (100-300mg/24hrs). She was started on magnesium sulphate along with labetalol for BP control, given betamethasone for stimulation of fetal lung maturity as well as potassium repletion. Hypercalcemia (HCa) was initially managed with fluids and Lasix intravenously. At 34 + 2 weeks she developed SOB, orthopnea, headaches with new 9lbs weight gain over 5 days and sustained BP elevation. Urgent C-section was done for pre-eclampsia with severe features. Post-operatively, she suffered from postpartum hemorrhage, managed with transfusion of packed red cells and transient placement of a Bakri balloon. Her HCa worsened with Ca 12.56 and cinacalcet was started after delivery. This coincided with gradual improvement of her BP and Ca to 10.8. She declined additional work-up and was discharged in stable condition. Clinical LessonPHPT often goes undiagnosed in pregnancy, with symptoms of fatigue and constipation mimicking common complaints of pregnancy. Studies have also suggested that up to 25% of patients with PHPT during pregnancy present with hypertension and pre-eclampsia and that there is an association between preeclampsia and the presence of parathyroid adenomas. The pathophysiology is unclear but is thought to be due to endothelial dysfunction triggered by hypercalcemia as well as abnormal placentation. No clear guidelines exist for the management of PHPT during pregnancy, with observation and rehydration being the preferred initial options. The use of cinacalcet as well as curative surgical parathyroidectomy when Ca levels persist >11 in the second trimester have also been described. Our patient presented similarly, with severe pre-eclampsia needing urgent C-section, further complicated by persistent severe HCa. Early diagnosis of PHPT, along with treatment including cinacalcet improved her Ca. It is therefore important that PHPT be considered in patients presenting like ours, progressing to severe pre-eclampsia as early reduction of serum calcium may reduce morbidity and mortality.
