摘要
The parathyroid gland is essential to maintaining the serum calcium level within the normal range by secreting the parathyroid hormone(PTH).Significant incidences of increased blood pressure,arrhythmia,left ventricular(LV)hypertrophy,and congestive heart failure(CHF)can occur in patients with parathyroid disease.Hypocalcemia can cause dilated cardiomyopathy,whether this is infrequent.Hypoparathyroidism caused by thyroidectomy and primary hypoparathyroidism are the greatest causes of hypocalcemic heart failure(HF).
