Disproportionate Elevated Troponin T Without Clinical Ischemia: A Diagnostic Challenge in the Emergency Department

Case Reports in Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Cardiac troponins (cTns) are essential for evaluating chest pain, but elevated levels can arise from noncardiac causes or laboratory artifacts. Confirmatory testing for assay interference is often unavailable for false‐positive cases, complicating diagnosis and management.

Brown Tumors Mimicking Skeletal Metastases: A Diagnostic Pitfall in Primary Hyperparathyroidism

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Brown tumors are rare but important manifestations of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). These benign, fibrotic, and erosive bony lesions result from localized rapid osteoclastic activity driven by excessive parathyroid hormone levels. Although brown tumors are considered one of the most pathognomonic signs of PHPT, they are infrequently ...

Surgical Treatment for Osteomalacia Induced by Causative Tumor in the Knee Joint Region: A Single‐Center Retrospective Clinical Study Over 10 Years

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 12, Page 3440-3455, December 2025.
The causative tumor for TIO in the knee joint region is hidden and has diverse locations, resulting in great challenges to endocrinologist and orthopedists. Due to the unique anatomical location and complex structure of the knee joint, orthopedic surgeons can adopt different surgical approaches to completely remove the causative tumor.
