Case description

Hyperparathyroidism is characterized by abnormally high parathyroid hormone levels in the blood due to overactivity of the parathyroid glands.
It is differentiated into three types based on the underlying cause: primary hyperparathyroidism, secondary hyperparathyroidism , and tertiary hyperparathyroidism which is a result of prolonged/persistent secondary hyperparathyroidism.
