内容説明

More than 50 chapters examine the anatomy and physiology of the parathyroids; the structure, function, and actions of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHRP); the causes of management of hypercalcemia due to PTHRP and other factors; and the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of clinical disorders of parathyroid function. The extensive section on clinical disorders includes: complete information on the molecular basis, clinical presentation, clinical course, and medical and surgical management of primary hyperparathyroidism; new methods for analyzing bone turnover in primary hyperparathyroidism; detailed discussions on familial forms of hypercalcemia, the parathyroids in renal disease, and hypoparathyroid states; an important chapter on parathyroid hormone as a potential therapy for osteoporosis.
