Zusammenfassung:BACKGROUND: The recommended NKF-K/DOQI'99 ranges for Ca, P and PTH in dialysis seem advisable also for patients previously submitted to parathyroidectomy; however no paper addresses, specifically in this condition, to what extent optimal values are targeted in the short and long term after surgery. METHODS: We checked serum Ca, P and PTH basally and after 1 month and 1, 3 and 5 years since surgery, in 77 dialysis subjects who received parathyroidectomy in our hospital. RESULTS: Immediately after surgery all biochemical para- meters dropped, but afterwards Ca showed a tendency to increase progressively in the long term (p
