Abstract
PLEASE NOTE. THE NEW 5TH EDITION OF THE BSAVA MANUAL OF ENDOCRINOLOGY IS NOW AVAILABLE HERE.
Primary hyperparathyroidism is an uncommon disease in dogs and is rare in cats but must still be considered as a possible cause of hypercalcaemia, particularly in an older, relatively asymptomatic dog. This chapter will discuss all recognized forms of hyperparathyroidism and their appropriate management strategies. Case examples: 10-year old male neutered Keeshond, 23.5 kg; 11-year-old male Beagle, 17 kg
