Hungry bone syndrome two weeks after starting cinacalcet: a call for caution

open access: yesCEN Case Reports, 2017
Cinacalcet is an effective and safe alternative to parathyroidectomy in end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism. Hypocalcemia is a known complication of treatment that is usually readily reversible upon discontinuation ...

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 ...

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

The 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.

Dynamic nomogram for predicting hungry bone syndrome before parathyroidectomy

Endocrine, 2023
The objective of this study was to develop a dependable and uncomplicated prediction model utilizing clinical information readily accessible to patients before surgery. This model aimed to assess the likelihood of hungry bone syndrome occurrence in post-surgery patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), and to assist clinicians in adjusting ...

Thymic Parathyroid Carcinoma and Postoperative Hungry Bone Syndrome

Endocrine Practice, 2003
To describe a case of parathyroid carcinoma localized to ectopic parathyroid tissue within the thymus and the development of hungry bone syndrome postoperatively.We present pertinent clinical, radiologic, pathologic, and laboratory details of the study patient and discuss the relevant literature.A 33-year-old man who presented with only symptoms of ...

Thyrotoxicosis and Hungry Bone Syndrome—A cause of posttreatment hypocalcemia

Clinical Biochemistry, 1994
We report a case of a 54 year old woman with a history of recurrent Graves' disease, treated previously by thyroidectomy and later by radioiodine, who subsequently presented with tetany. Laboratory results revealed a profound hypocalcemia (total calcium 1.00 mmol/L; ionized calcium 0.53 mmol/L) and hyperphosphatemia (2.66 mmol/L) with low levels of ...

Osteocalcin is an Independent Predictor for Hungry Bone Syndrome After Parathyroidectomy

World Journal of Surgery, 2019
AbstractBackgroundHungry bone syndrome is characterized by prolonged and severe hypocalcemia following parathyroidectomy. Previously, we reported that preoperative alkaline phosphatase is a major factor predicting prolonged hospital stay. Nonetheless, some patients with low alkaline phosphatase levels presented with hungry bone syndrome, suggesting ...

A Hungry Bone Syndrome Predicted by 18F-Fluorocholine PET/CT

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 2019
Abstract Predicting hungry bone syndrome (HBS) after surgical cure of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) can be challenging. A 57-year-old man diagnosed with PHPT was assessed preoperatively by 18F-fluorocholine PET/CT. An intense and diffuse tracer uptake of the axial and peripheral skeleton was visualized, in addition to a pathologic uptake

Cinacalcet-induced hungry bone syndrome.

Seminars in dialysis, 2007
Cinacalcet is a type II calcimimetic approved for treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with end-stage renal disease. It is generally well tolerated with the most common side effects being nausea and vomiting. Symptomatic hypocalcemia is rare, and persistent hypocalcemia has not been reported to date. We present a case of a 66-year-old
