Abstract
In the discharge report, no blood tests abnormalities were assessed, although vasculo-renal secondary hypertension was ruled out: glycemia: 140 mg/dl, phosphorus: 2.4 mg/dl, 24 hour urine calcium: 333.2 mg/24 h and positive microalbuminuria that could suggest a different etiology. Given the persistence of phosphorus-calcium metabolism disorders, PTH values, which were elevated, were assessed: 310 pg/ml. The diagnosis was hyperparathyroidism with secondary hypertension and metabolic syndrome.
