Hyperparathyroidism Secondary to Renal Impairment is the excessive production of parathyroid hormone by the parathyroid glands due to decreased renal function. In renal impairment there is a decrease in cholecalciferol conversion to calcitriol which results decrease of calcium absorption and therefore hypocalcemia, this in turn causes an increases the parathyroid hormone levels. High parathyroid hormone levels cause skeletal erosion which predisposes to bone fractures.
