Gestational Ectopic Hyperparathyroidism: A Case Report of Perioperative and Perinatal Outcomes

In the realm of obstetric care, discerning the subtle signs of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) amidst common pregnancy symptoms remains a formidable challenge. Our exploration into a case of gestational hypercalcemia peels back the layers of this complexity, revealing the clinical conundrum posed by overlapping gastrointestinal manifestations. The journey from diagnosis through surgical intervention to the resolution of symptoms underscores the importance of vigilance for PHPT in pregnant patients. This case further prompts consideration of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) as a potential piece in the puzzle of persistent symptoms post-calcium normalization, inviting a broader dialogue on the intricacies of parathyroid pathology in pregnancy.
