Hypothesis: Calcium and vitamin D intake after surgery for PHPT protects the bone by keeping PTH in the normal range (less secondary, reactive hyperparathyroidism), prevents hungry bone- syndrome and improve bone-turnover markers (osteoporosis protection). MedDRA version: 9.1 Level: LLT Classification code 10020707 Term: Hyperparathyroidism primary
