Maxillary Brown Tumor Unveiling Primary Hyperparathyroidism: A Rare Diagnostic Challenge. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Maxillary brown tumors are rare and may mimic malignant or odontogenic lesions, posing a diagnostic challenge. This case highlights that isolated facial swelling may be the first manifestation of primary hyperparathyroidism and underscores the importance of biochemical screening to prevent misdiagnosis and unnecessary surgery.

Diagnostic utility of 11C‐methionine PET/CT in primary hyperparathyroidism in a UK cohort: A single‐centre experience and literature review

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, Volume 99, Issue 3, Page 233-245, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Objective Primary hyperparathyroidism is a common endocrine disorder, with 80% of all cases usually caused by one single hyperfunctioning parathyroid adenoma. Conventional imaging modalities for the diagnostic work‐up of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) include ultrasound of the neck, 99mTc‐sestamibi scintigraphy, and four‐dimensional ...

Manifestations of hyperparathyroidism in the jaws: concepts, mechanisms, and clinical aspects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
O hiperparatireoidismo é um dos distúrbios endócrinos mais comuns em todo o mundo. Em países onde o rastreio bioquímico de rotina não é comum, predomina o hiperparatiroidismo sintomático.

Positive Effect of Parathyroidectomy Compared to Observation on BMD in a Randomized Controlled Trial of Mild Primary Hyperparathyroidism

open access: yesJournal of Bone and Mineral Research, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 372-380, March 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Mild or asymptomatic disease is now the dominating presentation of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). However, bone involvement with decreased bone mineral density (BMD) and an increased risk of fractures has been demonstrated. Indications for parathyroidectomy (PTX) in mild PHPT have been debated for years.

Osteitis fibrosa cystica in primary hyperparathyroidism [PDF]

open access: yesQJM, 2015
A 43-year-old Asian initially presented to her primary care physician (PCP) for chronic bilateral hip pain for which she tried analgesics and anti-inflammatory medication with minimal relief. She was found to have an abnormal X-ray of pelvic bone for which she was referred to orthopedic surgery for further evaluation. She underwent computed tomography (

Vitamin D Deficiency and the Presentation of Primary Hyperparathyroidism: A Mini Review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The clinical presentation of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) has evolved over the years from a symptomatic disorder to a predominantly asymptomatic condition. Altered vitamin D metabolism seems to play a role in the presentation of PHPT and may exacerbate the severity of disease.

Femoral Neck Fracture in a Pediatric Patient with Primary Hyperparathyroidism

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Case. A previously healthy 11‐year‐old girl underwent expedited surgical fixation of a femoral neck fracture sustained while jump‐roping. After further work up, she was diagnosed with primary hyperparathyroidism. Parathyroidectomy of a hypertrophic adenoma proved curative.

Spinal cord compression secondary to brown tumour in a patient on long-term haemodialysis: a case report. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Brown tumours may occur secondary to hyperparathyroidism in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). Diagnosing a spinal brown tumour causing cord compression requires a high index of suspicion.

A Rare Presentation of a Bi‐Maxillary Brown Tumour due to Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

open access: yesCase Reports in Dentistry, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Brown tumours are localized bone lesions, seen in patients with high parathyroid hormone levels. This can be due to primary hyperparathyroidism, which occurs more often in neoplasms of the parathyroid gland or due to secondary hyperparathyroidism more often seen as a result of renal impairment.

Serum parathyroid hormone levels and renal handling of phosphorus in patients with chronic renal disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 1972
In eight patients with advanced renal insufficiency (inulin clearance 1.4-9.1 ml/min), concentrations of serum calcium (S[Ca]) and phosphorus (S[P]) were maintained normal (S[Ca] > 9.0 mg/100 ml, (S[P] < 3.5 mg/100 ml) for at least 20 consecutive days ...
