Summary

The hypothesis of this study is that subtotal parathyroidectomy using minimally invasive surgery is superior to cinacalcet for the treatment of persistent secondary hyperparathyroidism (HPT) post renal transplant, with minimal morbidity and significantly reduces the cost of treatment post transplant.

Conditions

  • Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Subtotal parathyroidectomy

The procedure of choice is subtotal parathyroidectomy if the intraoperative biopsy confirms multiglandular disease and at least 3 glands are removed leaving a remanent of one normal gland

DRUG

Cinacalcet

Cinacalcet is initiated at a dose of 30 mg per day PO, adjusting the dose monthly (up to 90 mg per day PO) to achieve normocalcemia
