Introduction: Hypoparathyroidism (hypoPT) is characterized by inadequately low circulating concentrations of parathyroid hormone (PTH) followed by low calcium and increased phosphate levels in the blood. Patients with hypoPT suffer from a number of complications and complaints including infections, neuro-psychiatric diseases, abnormal bone architecture impaired muscle function and reduced quality of life. Due to the complexity of the various clinical manifestations there is a ...

In hypoparathyroidism (HypoPT), patients suffer severely from reduced quality of life. The complexity of HypoPT demands a disease-specific control instrument to characterize symptom load. We employed a newly developed disease-specifichypoparathyroid patient questionnaire (the HPQ 40/28) to investigate and quantify HypoPT patients’ complaints and contributing factors. In this cross-sectional, two-center study, patients with postsurgical HypoPT (n = 49) were m...
