  Primary hyperparathyroidism in children is a rare disorder. It is usually sporadic and due to adenoma. It should be suspected when hypercalcemia with elevated parathyroid hormone is detected. Surgical resection is the treatment of choice with a favorable outcome.

  We present the case of a 9-year-old girl with a parathyroid adenoma, whose primary manifestations were renal colic and hypercalcemia. The thyroid scan with technetium-99 sestamibi confirmed the diagnosis. After surgery blood calcium levels returned to normal.

  In the differential diagnosis of renal colic in children, the underlying possibility of rare diseases with specific treatment, such as parathyroid adenoma, should also be considered.
