In this lecture, Professor Zach Murphy will present on Parathyroid Disorders. We will discuss the pathophysiology, including abnormalities in parathyroid hormone production that lead to disturbances in calcium and phosphorus balance. The lecture will include a discussion on the clinical manifestations, such as hypercalcemia or hypocalcemia, bone pain, and muscle weakness. The digital presentation will begin with the diagnostic approach, highlighting the importance of serum calcium, phosphorus, and parathyroid hormone measurements. Finally, we will review management strategies for Parathyroid Disorders, emphasizing the use of medications to manage calcium levels, dietary modifications, and in some cases, surgical intervention. Enjoy the lecture and support us below!
