Background Brown tumor is a giant cell focal bone lesion associated with hyperparathyroidism and is more common in long bones such as the femur, ribs, pelvis, and clavicle, rather than in the head and neck region.

Normocalcemic versus Hypercalcemic Primary Hyperparathyroidism: More Stone than Bone? [PDF]
Introduction. Normocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism (NPHPT) is considered a variant of the more frequent form of the disease characterized by normal serum calcium levels with high PTH.

Background Parathyroidectomy has ameliorated cardiovascular risk factors in patients with hypercalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), but the effect of parathyroidectomy on normocalcemic PHPT is not exactly known.

PTH immunoassay interference: differential diagnosis with normocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism? [PDF]
SUMMARY The main diagnostic dilemma in normocalcemic hyperparathyroidism is differentiating this condition from secondary hyperparathyroidism and other causes of elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels in eucalcemic patients, including potential assay ...

Renal Papillary Necrosis Associated With Normocalcemic Primary Hyperparathyroidism. [PDF]
Renal papillary necrosis (RPN) occurring in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) has not been reported. We present a 50-year-old woman who manifested RPN associated with hypercalciuria and normocalcemic PHPT.The diagnosis of RPN was based on imaging studies (ultrasound and computed tomography [CT] scan).

Normocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism is not associated with cardiometabolic alterations. [PDF]
Abstract Purpose Cardiometabolic disorders are non-classical complications of hypercalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism (HC-PHPT), but whether this risk connotes normocalcemic PHPT (NC-PHPT) remains to be elucidated. We investigated cardiometabolic alterations in both forms of PHPT, looking for their association with ...

Tooth mobility revealing a brown tumor associated with normocalcemic hyperparathyroidism: case report and literature review [PDF]
Background Brown tumors are rare non-neoplastic bone lesions associated with hyperparathyroidism. They are uncommon in the jaws and are usually linked to primary or secondary hyperparathyroidism, while tertiary hyperparathyroidism is rarely reported ...

Nephrolithiasis in hypercalcemic and normocalcemic primary Hyperparathyroidism [PDF]
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a common condition affecting up to 4 per 1000 of population, and the majority of cases are due to adenoma or hyperplasia of the gland [1].

Osteoporosis and Normocalcemic Primary Hyperparathyroidism (Conservatively or Surgically Managed). [PDF]
Asymptomatic primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) involves 80–90% of the parathyroid tumor-associated cases of PHPT in the modern medical era, while normocalcemic PHPT (NPHPT) has a prevalence of 0.1–11%. We aimed to analyze the bone status and mineral metabolism in NPHPT amid conservative or surgical management.
