Secondary hyperparathyroidism and trace elements’ metabolism disturbances are common, important, and treatable complications of chronic renal failure (CRF).The relation between parathyroid hormone (PTH) and some trace elements in CRF patients on hemodialysis is still not completely elucidated. The aim of this work is to determine the serum levels of PTH and the trace elements zinc (Zn) and magnesium (Mg) in children with CRF under hemodialysis. The relation between PTH and those trace elements will be investigated. The study included 24 children (15 males and nine females) with CRF on regular hemodialysis. Also, 15 healthy age-matched children were included as control group. Serum levels of PTH, zinc, and magnesium were determined in all cases and controls. PTH and magnesium levels in patients were significantly higher than controls. Serum zinc levels were significantly lower than controls. There was a significant negative correlation between serum levels of PTH and zinc as well as an insignificant negative correlation between PTH and serum magnesium in CRF patients. Elevated PTH may play a role in the pathogenesis of hypozincemia. However, this is another negative report on the relation between PTH and serum Mg in children with CRF
