Gland-sparing PTX achieved acceptable control of ESRD-associated hyperparathyroidism in most patients from a socioeconomically challenged, underserved population of the United States.

The combination of critical illness and recent bacteremia likely represented a state of profound immunosuppression in this formerly healthy patient. CMV colitis may be under-diagnosed in sick ICU patients with renal failure and otherwise unexplained diarrhea. Serum PCR testing may aid the diagnosis.
