Although this difference did not reach statistical significance, it highlights an important clinical observation: compared to HD patients, those on PD may be at increased risk of developing hungry bone syndrome following parathyroidectomy, potentially due to differences in bone metabolism and calcium-phosphate handling. 11 PD has been associated with more continuous but lower-efficiency phosphate and calcium removal, which may lead to higher baseline bone turnover and impaired skeletal responsiveness to parathyroid hormone.
Total parathyroidectomy showed a trend toward fewer failures than subtotal parathyroidectomy.
