説明

31-year-old female. During her first pregnancy, she was found to have hypertension, proteinuria and anemia. These symptoms subsided after intrauterine death of fetus at the 3rd trimester, but redeveloped in her 2nd pregnancy. Thirst and polydipsia developed during pregnancy and persisted following the delivery. She first visited our Clinic because of nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and anemia. These symptoms improved with ambulant therapy. She complained of right ulnar pain due to a right ulnar cyst. Amass in the right neck was found, and laboratory tests revealed marked hypercalcemia, hypophosphatemia, increased alkaline phosphatase and renal dysfunction. Cystic fibrous ostitis, nephrocalcinosis and gastric ulcer were confirmed. Marked elevation of plasma renin activity associated with hyperaldosteronism and proximal renal tubular acidosis were demonstrated. After removal of parathyroid tumor, hypercalcemia and hyperreninemia definitely improved. She died of hypercalcemic crisis due to recidivation of hyperparathyroidism. Postmorten examination : Recidivation of the right parathyroid cancer with metastases to adjacent fatty tissue and right lobe of the thyroid and periparathyroid lymph nodes. Extensive fibrous ostitis, bilateral nephrocalcinosis, calcification of alveolar walls and heart muscle, pyelonephritis, gastric ulcer, cystitis and mild pulmonary edema.<br> The authors assumed that hyperreninemia associated with hyperaldosteronism in this case was secondary to proximal renal tubular acidosis and hypercalcemia.
