ABSTRACT

Four patients with primary hyperparathyroidism due to parathyroid adenoma, chief cell type, manifested some bone scan abnormalities not unlike the distribution of abnormally increased activity of dialysis patients with the secondary type. Bone scan using 99mTcSn-polyphosphate or any of the newer 99mTc-labeled phosphates is recommended in patients with hypercalcemia or suspected hyperparathyroidism.
