ABSTRACT

The authors report 10 observations of acute hyperparathyroïdism crisis cases operated without death. They draw their conclusions from their own experience and from published cases. The evolution on the medical treatment is invariably mortal. The logical treatment is surgery. The operation is a true emergency, preceded by a brief but intensive medical treatment which checks dehydratation up and bring the blood calcium level down.
