The clinical profile of asymptomatic primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) has shifted from a symptomatic disorder toward a more subtle, asymptomatic state. The lack of knowledge about the natural course of asymptomatic PHPT contributes to the controversy regarding the optimal management of these patients. The aim of this study is to evaluate the natural course of calcium and glucose metabolism abnormalities, insulin sensitivity, and bone mineral density (BMD) in subjects with asymptomatic PHPT over 18 months.
