Valdemarsson S, Lindergård B, Tibblin S, Bergenfelz A (Lund University Hospital, Sweden). Increased biochemical markers of bone formation and resorption in primary hyperparathyroidism with special reference to patients with mild disease. __J Intern Med__ 1998; 243: 115–22. ## Objectives .To evaluate the impact on bone turnover of primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) with special reference to patients with mild pHPT, using biochemical markers of bone formation and resorption. ## Design .A longitudinal study of patients with pHPT before and one year after surgical treatment. ## Setting .The Departments of Internal Medicine and Surgery, Lund University Hospital. ## Subjects .Forty consecutive patients with pHPT. Thirty of these patients had mild pHPT and are reported separately. Data on bone mineral was also compared to a reference population. ## Intervention All patients were operated upon and restudied one year later. ## Main outcome measures .Bone resorption and formation was studied by means of the serum concentrations of the telopeptide of the carboxyterminal region of type 1 collagen (ICTP) and of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin and the carboxyterminal propeptide of type 1
