Overlap of Pseudohypoparathyroidism and Primary Hyperparathyroidism in a Patient: Just a Coincidence?
نویسنده
چکیده
A 56-year-old female patient with the phenotype of Albright ́s hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) and pseudohypoparathyroidism 1a (PHP) diagnosed in 1987 was shown to have a heterozygote inactivating mutation on the GNAS1 gene. The patient has been treated with oral calcium and vitamin D since diagnosis of PHP 1a and developed primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) in 2009. Ultrasound as well as 99Tcsestamibi could demonstrate a lesion in the right lower position. Intraoperatively, a solitary parathyroid adenoma was found and resected leading to a ‘normalization’ of PTH and calcium. This case highlight is the rare coincidence of PHP, AHO and pHPT.

Coexisting 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.
متن کاملTransient neonatal hyperparathyroidism secondary to maternal pseudohypoparathyroidism.
A neonate was found to have normocalcaemic hyperparathyroidism with bone disease. The plasma parathyroid hormone concentration returned to normal by 4 weeks, and healing of the bone lesions was evident by age 5 months. The mother proved to have pseudohypoparathyroidism, previously unsuspected.

Osteitis fibrosa cystica is the classic patognomonic form of skeletal disease in hyperparathyroidism that characterizes with decreased cortical bone thickness compared to increased cancellous bone. We present a case of 52-year old female patient with osteolysis of the left calf on radiographic images. The bone scan detected multiple focal pathological accumulations in the skull, left tibia, bot...
متن کاملDistribution of circulating immunoreactive cbmponents of parathyroid hormone in normal subjects and in patients with primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism: the role of the kidney and of the serum calcium concentration
1. The distribution of intact parathyroid hormone-( 1-84) [PTH-( 1-84)] and of its COOHterminal fragments was determined in human serum by column chromatography. In addition to PTH-( 1-84) (peak I), COOH-terminal fragments having molecular weights of approximately 40007000 (peak 11) and immunoreactive components co-eluting with human PTH-( 1-12) (peak 111) were observed. 2. Mean concentrations ...
متن کاملMultiple brown tumors in a patient with parathyroid adenoma depicting affinity for both 99mTc -pertechnetate and 99mTc-MIBI: Evaluation with hybrid SPECT/CT
Parathyroid adenoma involving a single parathyroid gland is the underlying cause of 80-85% of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Skeletal system is significantly affected by PHPT. Brown tumors are known to have affinity for 99mTc-MIBI. We report a rare case of PHPT presenting with diffuse bony pain, high calcium level and significantly elevated alkaline phosphatase level. 99m<...
