Fracture Benefit with Parathyroidectomy (FRAX-based)
About
For a patient with primary hyperparathyroidism, enter a FRAX score to see the predicted fracture risk reduction with parathyroidectomy compared to non-surgical management.
Predictions are based on published models from
Sant VR, ElNakieb Y, Rousseau JF, Liu YL, Rubin CD, Maalouf NM. Use and Implications of the Fracture Risk Assessment Tool in Primary Hyperparathyroidism. JAMA Netw Open. 2026., developed from a national dataset of 59,194 U.S. patients with primary hyperparathyroidism.
