Abstract
Nephrolithiasis is one of the most common urologic condition, which is now likely to increase in time and become a burden on the health care system. Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a disorder of calcium, phosphate, and bone metabolism due to the increase of parathyroid hormone (PTH). The incidence of PHPT is about three times higher in females than in males, approximately 66 cases per 100,000 person-years in females. This case report describes a 62-year-old woman presented with bilateral nephrolithiasis with urinary tract infection. We investigate further the cause of bilateral nephrolithiasis and hypercalcemia was detected, which then led us to diagnosed primary hyperparathyroidism as the cause.
Keywords: Bilateral nephrolithiasis, primary hyperparathyroidism.
