ALT_DEFINITION |
A rare inherited condition in which one or more tumors form in the parathyroid glands (four pea-sized organs found on the thyroid) and cause them to make too much parathyroid hormone. The increased parathyroid hormone causes a loss of calcium from the bones and too much calcium in the blood. Primary hyperparathyroidism of autosomal dominant or recessive inheritance, associated with mutation(s) in any of the following genes: MEN1 (encoding menin); CASR (extracellular calcium-sensing receptor); or CDC73 (parafibromin), although many cases have no identifiable mutation. |
