What I understand is if you have pt disease the ONLY solution is surgery to remove the tumor from the pt gland.

It depends on - if one has Primary Hyperparathyroidism is the one where the only cure is pt surgery. But there is also 2ndary hyperparathyroidism - depending on the cause of 2ndary , the cause would be treated. For only one example if one has 2ndary hyperparathyroidism due to vit d deficiency - the treatment would be to treat with vit d by prescription.
