      Effects of Medical Treatment

      Finally, another medical option for PHPT patients is represented by cinacalcet HCl. It is a potent CASR agonist, which normalizes serum calcium levels, reducing circulating PTH levels without normalization. Cinacalcet is recommended in those PHPT patients who need to manage hypercalcemia [51]; based on this consideration, the use of cinacalcet in NPHPT patients is not reasonable. Moreover, no data are available about cinacalcet effects in NPHPT patients.

      Conclusions

      Emerging data suggest that NPHPT may not be an isolated biochemical alteration but it may affect the health of patients. It appears as a disease with some clinical features overlapping those of the HPHPT and others peculiar to NPHPT. Therefore, attention should be paid to identifying PTH-related diseases involving bone, kidney, and the cardiovascular system, and, when present, therapeutic options should be considered and discussed with the patients. Alternatively, long-term follow-up should be scheduled with the patients to detect the potential progression.
