Hibernomas, Brown Fat Tumors [PDF]

open access: possibleArchives of Dermatology, 1956
Hibernoma is the term which has been given to a very rare human neoplasm of brown fat. Brown fat is a little understood tissue which has been found in many different animals, including man. 1 It is most highly developed in hibernating animals and for a long time was thought to play an important role during the state of hibernation; hence, the name ...

Brown Tumor of the Orbit

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1977
BROWN tumor arising in the retroorbital region has not, to our knowledge, been previously reported. We report the case of a woman with chronic renal failure and a rapidly progressive proptosis with loss of visual acuity secondary to orbital brown tumor. Report of a Case A 24-year-old woman receiving long-term hemodialysis, with a four-year history of

Brown tumor of the mandible

American Journal of Otolaryngology, 1996
Brown tumor is a focal lesion differentiated from other giant-cell tumors by the presence of hyperparathyroidism. Treatment of brown tumors must be initially directed towards correcting the hyperparathyroidism. Tumor regression may occur with resolution of the hyperparathyroidism.

Brown tumor of the sternum

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2002
The skeletal changes of severe hyperparathyroidism, known as osteitis fibrosa cystica, are now rarely encountered, because hyperparathyroidism is currently being diagnosed and treated at an early stage. Herein, a case of brown tumor of the sternum is reported; our report adds histologic data on this type of tumor to the literature.

“Brown tumor” of the maxilla

Pediatric Radiology, 1992
A case of brown tumor of hyperparathyroidism in a young girl with a long history of chronic renal failure and hemodialysis therapy is reported. The diagnosis can be reached with the aid of the classic skeletal radiological sign which address the evaluation of both CT and MR imaging.

Brown Tumor and Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1991
Brown tumor is a focal, bony lesion of hyperparathyroidism that results from parathyroid hormone on bone increasing osteoclastic activity with bone resorption and trabecular fibrosis. This leads to microfractures and hemorrhage and the appearance of brown tumors, which are seen most commonly in primary hyperparathyroidism and less frequently in ...

Brown Tumor and Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

New England Journal of Medicine, 1963
SECONDARY hyperparathyroidism associated with chronic renal disease may simulate primary hyper-parathyroidism with secondary renal impairment in virtually every particular. An exception is the brown tumor, a relatively rare lesion, which has been considered to be almost specific for primary hyperpara-thyroidism and which to our knowledge has not ...

Ultrastructure of Brown Tumor of Hyperparathyroidism

Ultrastructural Pathology, 1990
The ultrastructure of two cases of brown tumor of hyperparathyroidism is described. The most frequent cells found are multinucleated giant cells and fibroblasts. The giant cells have ultrastructural features similar to osteoclasts such as numerous mitochondria, dilated rough endoplasmic reticulum, and short filopodia.

Brown tumor of mandible in association with primary hyperparathyroidism

, 2016
Brown tumor is considered a reparative cellular event rather than a true neoplasm. The presentation of reparative growths mimicking clinically as neoplasms can be an alarming situation to the clinician.

Brown Tumor of the Maxilla in Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1974
To our knowledge, this is the second case of brown tumor of the maxilla to be reported in a patient with secondary hyperparathyroidism. This diagnosis is clinical as well as histologic since this tumor is histologically indistinguishable from giant cell reparative granuloma, a lesion that occurs commonly in the maxilla.
