Twenty-three cases of primary hyperparathyroidism were experienced at Wakayama Medical College Hospital and affiliated hospitals between January, 1969 and December 1985. Histopathological findings were adenoma in 22 cases, hyperplasia in 1 case. On the clinical diagnosis of this disease, the most sensitive laboratory test was serum calcium level, which was elevated in 21 patients (91%), and in 87.8% of all samples measured. Serum ionized calcium and phosphorus were also sensitive measures. The positive rate of serum PTH was 67% in 18 cases. Tl-chloride scintigraphy identified preoperatively the site of the adenomas in 8 out of 10 cases, and computed tomography in 10 out of 15 cases. Both methods are non-invasive, and are beneficial for the preoperative examination of the localization of parathyroid adenoma. After parathyroidectomy, serum calcium and ionized calcium levels recovered rapidly within the normal limit in 12 hours. On the other hand, serum phosphorus level increased gradually up to the normal limit in about 1 week.
