SUMMARY

1. Genetic condition, benign, does not treatment.

2. Problem with calcium sensor which requires higher serum calcium level before turning PTH secretion off.

3. Calcium:creatinine clearance ratio < 0.01: high liklihood of FHH.

4. If ratio > 0.02: dx is excluded and consider primary hyperparathyroidism.
