Incidence of Primary Hyperparathyroidism in Rochester, Minnesota, 1993–2001: An Update on the Changing Epidemiology of the Disease

We updated the incidence of primary hyperparathyroidism in Rochester, Minnesota. The lower rates previously noted persisted, whereas parathyroidectomies at our institution remained high. These data suggest an etiologic factor may be responsible for the peak incidence in the 1970s.
