Fifty-eight patients on intermittent haemodialysis underwent parathyroidectomy because of severe secondary hyperparathyroidism. Mean individual parathyroid gland weight was 689 +/- 62 (SEM) mg. Mean total gland weight per patient was between two and three grams. Increasing nodule formation within hyperplastic glands appeared to develop with increasing time of duration of hyperparathyroidism. Patients with chronic pyelonephritis had a higher gland weight than those with chronic glomerulonephritis. A direct relationship was found between gland weight and circulating immunoreactive parathyroid hormone, but an inverse relationship between gland weight and plasma aluminium concentration. The higher the parathyroid gland aluminium, the higher was the bone aluminium concentration.
