Abstract

Renal calculi is an uncommon clinical presentation of parathyroid adenoma today. Only 17% of parathyroid adenoma has renal calculi in Levin's report. The association of parathyroid adenoma is often overlooked in the patients of renal calculi. We report a case whose clinical presentation is renal calculi with renal colic Parathyroid adenoma was not discovered until the second admission. The patient's clinical presentation improved after parathyroidectomy. We report this case to remind the clinical physician regarding the possibility of coexistence of parathyroid adenoma in patients of renal calculi. Excision of the parathyroid adenoma is the only treatment for these patients.
