Abstract

Introduction. The problem of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) and tertiary hyperparathyroidism (THPT) has drawn the attention of numerous researchers in many countries, including those where kidney transplantation is a routine procedure. The most acute aspects include determining the most effective methods of therapeutic treatment, diagnostic and prognostic criteria, indications for surgery, its scope, and methods of avoiding relapses. The aim. To study the quality of life of patients who underwent surgery for secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism on the background of chronic kidney disease. Materials and Methods. During the study, we conducted a survey of 60 patients with secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism who underwent surgery between 2020 and 2023. The surveys were conducted twice: before the surgical intervention and within a period of up to 9 months after it. Among those surveyed, there were 35 (58%) women and 25 (42%) men. The average age of the respondents was 51.31±9.16 years. Results and Discussion. Quality of life is one of the most important indicators of the effectiveness of treatment. We observed an improvement in the quality of life in all surveyed patients with Tertiary Hyperparathyroidism (THPT) after surgical treatment. From the physical component point of view, this effect is undoubtedly associated with a decrease in the level of PTH and ionized calcium in the blood. This is evidenced by the significant correlation between these indicators and the obtained values of physical functioning scales before and after the operation. Conclusions. A significant correlation was observed between the levels of parathyroid hormone, ionized calcium, and physical functioning scales before and after surgery.
