Summary: Severe secondary hyperparathyroidism in chronic dialysis patients has been recently treated by supraphysiological concentration of calcitriol achieved through pulse therapy. However, there are many patients resistant to this therapy, who usually have larger parathyroid gland(s). to overcome this resistance, calcitriol was injected directly into the enlarged glands under ultrasonographic guidance. We injected 70–90% of the calculated gland volume of calcitriol solution (1 μg/mL) into the glands of 7 patients three times per week for 2 weeks. the parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels decreased significantly after 2 weeks of direct injections of calcitriol. Following a further 4 weeks of calcitriol pulse therapy, PTH levels remained suppressed and serum alkaline phosphatase activity and the volume of parathyroid glands also decreased. During the long‐term follow up, five patients remained well controlled with calcitriol pulse therapy, while two patients needed ethanol injections to control hyperparathyroidism. Although we could not completely rule out a toxic effect of the vehicle, direct injection of calcitriol into parathyroid glands may be another treatment option for chronic dialysis patients. Our data further support the important role of resistance of parathyroid cells to calcitriol in the pathogenesis of parathyroid hyper function in uraemic patients.
