Abstract: 【Abstract】 Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication of chronic kidney disease patients. Hyperparathyroidism may still occur in some patients after successful kidney transplantation due to the changes of calcium and phosphorus metabolism that lead to the abnormal functions of parathyroid gland. Recently, it is found that hyperparathyroidism after kidney transplantation increases the risks of loss functions of the graft, bone metabolic disorders, cardiovascular diseases, post-transplantation diabetes mellitus and death. In this paper, the relationship between SHPT and kidney transplantation related complications is discussed.

Key words: Secondary hyperparathyroidism, Kidney transplantation, Parathyroid hormone, Prognosis of transplantation
