Most patients who were operated due to primary hyperparathyroidism achieved normocalcemia after surgery, and the frequency of complications was low. Ionized calcium taken 0-1 days after surgery was not associated with remission of hyperparathyroidism or postoperative hypoparathyroidism. High postoperative serum PTH predicted persistent disease.
