Osteitis Fibrosa Cystica: The Hideous Face of Hyperparathyroidism. [PDF]
Osteitis fibrosa cystica (OFC), the skeletal scourge of advanced hyperparathyroidism, unveils itself as a relentless destroyer of bone architecture, leaving behind a landscape of fragility and deformity. In the shadow of chronic kidney disease, where mineral imbalances reign, this rare but devastating entity emerges as a silent tormentor.

A 60-year-old man with chronic renal failure and a costal mass: a case report and review of the literature [PDF]
Introduction Brown tumors are a rare focal manifestation of osteitis fibrosa cystica, which results from hyperparathyroidism. Chronic kidney failure may lead to secondary or tertiary hyperparathyroidism and thus to osteitis fibrosa cystica and brown ...
