Abstract
Constant progress in technic of biochemical measurements allow to find easier the diagnostic of primary hyperparathyroidism, which is more usual with advanced age. We're trying in this study to assess the best treatment for the old patient, often asymptomatic. We propose four clinical cases reports to illustrate the discussion.
