What are the Long-term Implications of PTH-related Disorders in Neonates?
The long-term implications of PTH-related disorders in neonates can vary. Early diagnosis and appropriate management are crucial for optimal outcomes. For instance, untreated neonatal hypocalcemia can lead to developmental delays and neurological deficits, while hyperparathyroidism may cause growth issues and skeletal abnormalities. Continual monitoring and individualized treatment plans are essential to mitigate these risks and support healthy development.
