Abstract:
A case is presented of nephrolithiasis in a patient with no other symptoms than the urological ones and in which considerable hypercalcemia led to a study being carried out on his phospho-calcium metabolism and the diagnosis reached was primary hyperparathyroidism caused by a parathyroid adenoma. Surgical treatment was performed on the lithiasis and the adenoma as a result of which the symptoms completely disappeared and the biochemical readings returned to normal.
