Summary

Severe Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHP) has been associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Hypertension, dyslipidemia and impaired glucose tolerance were demonstrated in severe PHP, with improvement after surgery in these variables. Recent evidence suggests that the 'quality' rather than only the 'quantity' of low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol exerts a direct influence on the cardiovascular risk. Thus, the proposed study protocol is intended to evaluate lipoprotein phenotype and LDL size and subclasses in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism.
