Descriptor hipoparatiroidismo
Scope note: Afección debida a deficiencia de HORMONA PARATIROIDEA (o PTH). Se caracteriza por HIPOCALCEMIA e hiperfosfatemia. La hipocalcemia puede dar lugar a TETANIA. La forma adquirida es secundaria a exéresis o lesiones de las GLÁNDULAS PARATIROIDES. La forma congénita se debe a mutaciones de genes como TBX1 (ver SÍNDROME DE DIGEORGE), CASR, que codifica el RECEPTOR SENSIBLE AL CALCIO o PTH, que codifica la hormona paratiroidea.

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D007011
Scope note: A condition caused by a deficiency of PARATHYROID HORMONE (or PTH). It is characterized by HYPOCALCEMIA and hyperphosphatemia. Hypocalcemia leads to TETANY. The acquired form is due to removal or injuries to the PARATHYROID GLANDS. The congenital form is due to mutations of genes, such as TBX1; (see DIGEORGE SYNDROME); CASR encoding CALCIUM-SENSING RECEPTOR; or PTH encoding parathyroid hormone.
