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

Clin 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.

Primary Hyperparathyroidism From Concurrent Parathyroid Hyperplasia and Ectopic Parathyroid Adenoma: A Case Report [PDF]

Case Reports in Endocrinology
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), whether caused by an adenoma or hyperplasia, can be curative with parathyroidectomy. However, persistently elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) despite parathyroidectomy suggests multigland disease.

Advantages of total parathyroidectomy in patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism induced by end stage renal disease

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
IntroductionSecondary hyperparathyroidism, as a result of chronic kidney disease could be treated medically or surgically. When pharmacotherapy fails, patients undergo surgery - parathyroidectomy, the curative treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism ...

The rate, cost and outcomes of parathyroidectomy in the united states dialysis population from 2016–2018

BMC Nephrology, 2022
Background In end-stage kidney disease, patients may undergo parathyroidectomy if secondary hyperparathyroidism cannot be managed medically. This study was designed to estimate the parathyroidectomy rate in the United States (US) and to quantify changes ...

Robot-Assisted Parathyroidectomy Using Indocyanine Green (ICG) Fluorescence in Primary Hyperparathyroidism

Medicina, 2023
Background and Objectives: Surgical treatment for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) has evolved from bilateral exploration through a long transcervical incision to focused parathyroidectomy with a minimal incision above the pathologic gland.

Delayed Calcium Normalization after Successful Parathyroidectomy in Primary Hyperparathyroidism

Case Reports in Endocrinology, 2021
Introduction. Parathyroidectomy is the curative treatment option in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). The decrease of parathormone (PTH) by 50% or more from levels prior to surgery after excision predicts successful parathyroidectomy.

Successful parathyroidectomy improves cognition in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism: A prospective study in a tertiary medical center and comprehensive review of the literature

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
ContextThe recent American and European guidelines on management of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) did not endorse neurocognitive evaluation as part of standard work-up and did not consider it as a surgery criterion.The neurocognitive ...
