A Longstanding Hungry Bone Syndrome

open access: yesThe Endocrinologist, 2007
Hungry bone syndrome is a common sequelae of parathyroid surgery. The phenomenon is caused by severe osteitis fibrosa cystica causing rapid remineralization of the bones. We describe a case of hungry bone syndrome with profound and longstanding hypocalcemia after parathyroid surgery that was very resistant to treatment.

Hungry Bone Syndrome After Parathyroid Surgery

Hemodialysis International, 2023
Abstract Introduction Data on the incidence rates of hungry bone syndrome after parathyroidectomy in patients on dialysis are inconsistent, as the published rates vary from 15.8% to 92.9%. Methods

[The hungry bone syndrome--an update].

open access: yesTherapeutische Umschau. Revue therapeutique, 2007
The Hungry Bone Syndrome (HBS) represents an important cause of prolonged hypocalcemia after parathyreoidectomy (PTX) due to primary, secondary or tertiary hyperparathyreoidism. The sudden postoperative withdrawal of parathyroid hormone (PTH) induces a stop in osteoclastic bone resorption without affecting the osteoblastic activity.

Hungry Bone Syndrome Secondary to Subtotal Thyroidectomy in A Patient With Thyrotoxicosis

open access: yesThe American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2021
Patients with thyrotoxicosis are prone to transient hypocalcemia after thyroidectomy, which may be due in part to surgical damage to the parathyroid glands. Hungry bone syndrome (HBS) can also cause hypocalcemia after thyroidectomy. HBS is due to increased osteoblast-mediated bone formation activity and normal or decreased bone resorption activity.

Scintigraphic Findings in Hungry Bone Syndrome Following Parathyroidectomy

Revista Española De Medicina Nuclear, 2010
Prolonged hypocalcemia following parathyroidectomy, called hungry bone syndrome, is a common complication of parathyroid surgery seen in 13-30% of cases. In this article, we report the case of a 48-year-old woman with bone pain and multiple brown tumors as the first manifestation of primary hyperparathyroidism due to a large parathyroid adenoma.

Hungry Bone Syndrome After Parathyroidectomy Caused by an Ectopic Parathyroid Adenoma

open access: yesJournal of Bone and Mineral Metabolism, 2009
Hungry bone syndrome (HBS), i.e., persistent hypocalcemia and hypophosphatemia as a result of extensive remineralization, is rarely encountered in children after parathyroid surgery.

Hungry bone syndrome

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2017
In the United States, the number of parathyroidectomies among patients with chronic dialysis has remained stable in the last decade. A fall in serum calcium concentration is common postparathyroidectomy in patients with hyperparathyroidism, which usually resolves in 2-4 days.

Hyperparathyroidism and Hungry Bone Syndrome Revisited

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 2014
A 36-year-old woman presented with a calcium level of 15.7 mg/dL (normal, 8.5-11.0 mg/dL) and an extremely elevated parathyroid hormone level of 1549.6 pg/mL (normal, 10.0-65.0 pg/ mL). She subsequently underwent a parathyroid scan and ultrasound evaluation, which suggested parathyroid carcinoma.

Hungry bone syndrome in a child following parathyroid surgery

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1992
The rare hungry bone syndrome was encountered in a 15-year-old child after the removal of a parathyroid adenoma. Contrary to the hypocalcemias caused by the removal of all parathyroid glands or transient ischemia after parathyroid surgery, in which the serum inorganic phosphorus level is usually normal, both serum calcium and inorganic phosphorus ...
