Parathyroid Adenoma Presenting with Severe Skeletal Deformities

Parathyroid adenoma (PA) is the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism.Parathyroid hyperplasia and cancer are rare, accounting for less than 1% of cases1.PA is typically identified via ultrasonography.We present a case of a 17-year-old female with severe skeletal deformities and extensive osteolytic lesions.She underwent parathyroid adenoma excision and subsequently developed hungry bone syndrome, requiring calcium and vitamin D supplementation.Isolated skeletal abnormalities as the primary manifestation of parathyroid adenoma are rare.

Abstract

Parathyroid adenoma (PA) is the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism.Parathyroid hyperplasia and cancer are rare, accounting for less than 1% of cases1.PA is typically identified via ultrasonography.We present a case of a 17-year-old female with severe skeletal deformities and extensive osteolytic lesions.She underwent parathyroid adenoma excision and subsequently developed hungry bone syndrome, requiring calcium and vitamin D supplementation.Isolated skeletal abnormalities as the primary manifestation of parathyroid adenoma are rare.
