Osteosclerosis in a Thirty-Four-Year-Old Woman With Primary Hyperparathyroidism
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hyperparathyroidism is an endocrine abnormality that frequently causes diffuse osteopenia in the bones. Osteosclerosis is a rare phenomenon in adults with primary hyperparathyroidism since the usual skeletal manifestation is generalized osteopenia. We describe a patient with generalized osteosclerosis in the jaws and skull in association with primary hyperparathyroidism, while the other skeletal bones had normal or decreased density.

متن کاملAbsent radiotracer uptake in thyroid gland in parathyroid scintigraphy with 99mTc-MIBI: A case report
Localization of 99mTc- hexakis-2-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) by parathyroid adenomas is well known, and this warrants MIBI scan to evaluate suspected parathyroid adenoma in primary hyperparathyroidism. Typically, the radionuclide concentrates in both the thyroid gland and parathyroid adenoma in early images, and later on delayed images washes out slowly from the...
متن کاملPrimary Hyperparathyroidism with Extensive Brown Tumors and Multiple Fractures in a 20-Year-Old Woman
A brown tumor is a benign fibrotic, erosive bony lesion caused by localized, rapid osteoclastic turnover, resulting from hyperparathyroidism. Although brown tumors are one of the most pathognomonic signs of primary hyperparathyroidism, they are rarely seen in clinical practice. In this report, we present a case of 20-year-old woman with recurrent fractures and bone pain. Plain digital radiograp...
متن کاملCoexisting primary hyperparathyroidism and Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy--an unusual association.
Primary hyperparathyroidism associated with Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy was diagnosed in a 22 year old Japanese woman, the second such case to be reported. Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) appears to be associated with a larger number of disorders than the well recognized pseudohypoparathyroidism. AHO and pseudo-pseudohypoparathyroidism are essentially identical.
