Özet

Kidney transplantation (KT) is the best option for patients with end-stage renal disease, but recipients still have legacy bone mineral disease from the pretransplant period, especially patients with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT). Patients who had severe sHPT and underwent KT were analyzed retrospectively. Two groups were identified (patients with severe sHPT who had parathyroidectomy or calcimimetic before KT). Bone mineral density (BMD) was measured in the first year and last follow-up at the femoral neck, total hip, and lumbar spine using the dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Persistent hyperparathyroidism (perHPT) incidence was significantly higher in the calcimimetic group (75% vs. 40%, p=0.007). In patients with parathyroidectomy, BMDs were higher at femoral neck (0.818 +/- 0.114 vs. 0.744 +/- 0.134, p=0.04) and lumbar spine (1.005 +/- 0.170 vs. 0.897 +/- 0.151, p=0.01) at the first assessment. The BMD comparison between patients treated with parathyroidectomy and calcimimetic found a significant difference only in the femoral neck at second evaluation (0.835 +/- 0.118 vs. 0.758 +/- 0.129; p=0.03). In multivariate, linear regression revealed a positive association between the last BMD of the femoral neck with body mass index (CC: 0.297, 95% CI, 0.002-0.017) and parathyroidectomy (CC: 0.319, 95% CI, 0.021-0.156). Parathyroidectomy is associated with a significantly better femoral neck BMD and a lower incidence of perHPT in patients with severe sHPT.
