Spontaneous remission of secondary hyperparathyroidism in patient receiving regular dialysis.

Parathyroid apoplexy, the explanation of spontaneous remission of primary hyperparathyroidism: a case report

Primary hyperparathyroidism due to parathyroid adenoma represents an endocrine disease that is usually treated by surgical intervention (parathyroidectomy). In a very few patients, primary hyperparathyroidism can be spontaneously remit either by infraction or hemorrhage of the adenoma,a fact that is almost certain that will not lead to complete and definite cure. We describe a similar case of a...

Spontaneous remission of African lymphoma.

THE extreme sensitivity to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and the relatively high incidence of long-term survivals observed in the treatment of African lymphoma is now well known (Burkitt, Hutt and Wright, 1965 ; Clifford, 1966 ; Ngu, 1966). The observation that long-term remissions, amounting to possible cures. can follow a single dose of chemotherapy (Burkitt, 1966) suggests a strong antitumo...

Spontaneous remission in aplastic anaemia.

Spontaneous remission of severe hyperparathyroidism with normalization of the reversed whole PTH/intact PTH ratio in a haemodialysis patient.

Secondary hyperparathyroidism is one of the most common and serious abnormalities in patients with chronic kidney disease. Despite recent progress in the treatment of hyperparathyroidism, advanced uraemic nodular hyperplasia, or rarely, sporadic primary adenoma accompanied by chronic renal failure is usually resistant to medical treatment and requires parathyroidectomy [1,2]. Spontaneous remiss...
