The incidence of primary hyperparathyroidism amongst the elderly has increased during the last decade. Recent studies show that the incidence has risen to 277 per million population after the introduction of automated techniques for measuring the serum calcium. The diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism in patients over 60 has increased fivefold in men and more than sixfold in women. Coincidentally there has been a diversity of clinical presentation and an increasing interest in the manifestation. We report three patients who presented with entirely different clinical pictures but who were proved to have primary hyperparathyroidism.
在过去十年中，老年人原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进症的发病率有所上升。最近的研究表明，在采用自动技术测量血清钙之后，发病率已升至每百万人口277例。60岁以上患者原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进症的诊断在男性中增加了五倍，在女性中增加了六倍多。巧合的是，临床表现呈现出多样性，人们对其表现的兴趣也在增加。我们报告了三名临床表现完全不同但经证实患有原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进症的患者。
