TI  - A Case of Primary Hyperparathyroidism Coincidentwith Advanced Iliac Artery Aneurism
AB  - Background: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a clinical entity characterized by clinical symptoms specific to highparathyroid hormone (PTH) and hypercalcemia. Patients are generally asymptomatic, and high calcium levels are detectedby biochemical tests. We present a case of a patient with a rare vascular complication of hyperparathyroidism. Case Report: In our 58-year-old male patient, a high calcium level was attributed to PHPT. The iliac artery aneurysm de tected in our patient was evaluated as a complication of an elevated PTH level. No risk factors for IAA were detected in thepatient’s history. Surgery was performed for the iliac artery, followed by parathyroidectomy. Conclusion: In this case report, a PHPT case without a risk factor for IAA is presented. This case demonstrates the relationbetween higher PTH levels and vascular damage. This case presented with the absence of advanced-stage iliac artery aneu rism with PHPT coexistence.
