Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a rare clinical entity in reproductive women. Unusual hypercalcemia causing pancreatitis in the peripartum period carries significant morbidity to both the fetus and the mother. CASE REPORT:A 38-year-old woman developed a morbid course of intractable intra-abdominal abscess by pancreatitis, hydronephrosis by renal lithiasis, and unusual neurological presentations soon after delivery. Serial serum calcium level and imaging studies lead to the final diagnosis of PHPT due to a parathyroid adenoma. Data on 14 patients who suffered from pancreatitis due to hyperparathyroidism were collected from a MEDLINE search. The reasons for delayed diagnosis and literature review of acute pancreatitis in PHPT are discussed. CONCLUSION:Hypercalcemia can be masked during pregnancy and in severe pancreatitis, as was detected in about half of the case series. Clinicians should have a high level of suspicion of parathyroid adenoma in cases with a profound pancreatitis. Timely diagnosis and early therapeutic intervention are important to resolve complications and improve the outcomes of mothers and fetuses.
