Hypoparathyroidism is deficiency of parathyroid hormone (PTH) which resulting in hypocalsemia and hyperphosphatemia. It involved calcium concentration which plays a vital role in the the pathophysiology and diagnosis of hypoparathyroidism. The following diagram shows the hydroxilation of vitamin D to its active form and its action to increase the serum calcium concentration.
