Widespread presentation of brown tumors mimicking multiple myeloma
Brown tumors or osteitis fibrosa cystica has become a rare presentation of primary hyperparathyroidism in up-to-date clinical practice. Here, we describe a case of longstanding untreated hyperparathyroidism presenting itself with brown tumors in a 65 ...

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

Maxillary and Frontal Bone Simultaneously Involved in Brown Tumor due to Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in a Hemodialysis Patient [PDF]
Brown tumors are rare focal giant cell lesions of the bone caused by primary hyperparathyroidism (HPT). Brown tumor was reported in 1891; it presents as the end-stage findings of HPT. Common involvements are skull and pelvic girdle. We describe a case of
