- Hypoparathyroidism: Symptoms Treatment - Cleveland Clinic
Hypoparathyroidism is a rare but treatable condition that causes low levels of calcium in your blood Damage to your parathyroid glands during surgery and certain genetic and autoimmune diseases can cause it Treatment usually involves calcium and vitamin D supplements
- Genetic disorders of parathyroid development and function
Key points: Hypoparathyroidism can be an isolated endocrine disorder or part of a complex syndrome Genetic defects account for disorders of parathyroid gland formation, dysregulation of parathyroid hormone synthesis or secretion, and autoimmune destruction of the parathyroid glands

The initial assessment of hypoparathyroidism not only includes a comprehensive history and evaluation of clinical signs and symptoms but also the identification of secondary complications that may have developed In most patients, hypoparathyroidism is clinically apparent in patients who become symptomatic immediately following neck surgery
- Types Causes of HypoPARAthyroidism
Genetic HypoPARAthyroidism Symptoms of genetic hypoPARA present in the first few years of life, absent surgical causes There is often a family history of the condition Genetic hypoPARA may be part of a syndrome involving other organs or tissues, such as: DiGeorge Syndrome Kenny-Caffey Syndrome Autoimmune Polyglandular Syndrome (APS-1) Pearson
- Hypoparathyroidism: Genetics and Diagnosis - PubMed
Several genetic disorders can present with hypoparathyroidism, either as an isolated disease or as part of a syndrome A positive family history and, in the case of complex diseases, characteristic comorbidities raise the clinical suspicion of a genetic disorder

Beyond expanding the number of genetic variants linked to ADH1, this work reinforces the vital role of genetic testing in uncovering the underlying cause of hypoparathyroidism,” said Dr Michael

GENETIC CAUSES OF HYPOPARATHYROIDISM Abnormal Parathyroid Development X-linked or autosomal recessive mutations (e g , GCM2 gene, encoding a key transcription factor) PreproPTH Gene Mutations Defects in the PTH precursor protein → no biologically active PTH Autosomal Dominant Activating Mutations of the CaSR Lower calcium set point for PTH release → PTH not secreted until hypocalcemia is
