Background: Hypertrophic scars can be caused by various injuries and lead to a decrease in quality of life those affected. This study was performed retrospectively our center investigate the safety effectiveness fractional micro-plasma radio-frequency treatment combined with ablative carbon dioxide (CO2) laser patients hypertrophic scar.

Pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by variable insensitivity to parathyroid hormone. We describe two cases of 22 year male and 24 year female who have typical clinical features of Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO). Laboratory investigation revealed evidence of pseudohypoparathyroidism and skeletal survey showed shortening of the metacarpa...

Facial skeletal changes associated with hyperparathyroidism assume 3 radiographic patterns: osteitis fibrosa cystica, fibrous dysplasia, and leontiasis ossea. The 3rd pattern is unique to renal osteodystrophy. We report a case of uremic leontiasis ossea with CT images illustrating significant hypertrophy of the jaws with serpiginous tunneling within the bone and poor visualization of the cortic...

A clinical case of fibrous osteodystrophy in a dog with secondary renal hyperparathyroidism is described. Considerable deviations in blood biochemistry, radiological, ultrasonographic and ECG findings, as well as in histological examination of kidneys were observed. All these changes are considered as relevant and in our view, could be utilized for the proper diagnostics of this pathological st...

We report a case of bilateral fracturing of the femoral neck in a patient with renal osteodystrophy who was treated by means of osteosynthesis. In this type of patient, there is a need to remain watchful for the possibility of occurrences of spontaneous fracturing of the femoral neck, even if the initial radiographic examination is normal.

Naturally occurring secondary nutritional hyperparathyroidism is described in the nestlings of two colonies of cattle egrets (Bubulcus ibis) from Central Texas (Bryan and San Antonio, Texas, USA). Nestlings from a third colony (Waco, Texas, USA) were collected in a subsequent year for comparison. Birds from the first two colonies consistently had severe osteopenia and associated curving deformi...
