The disease can manifest at any age, but it is more common among persons over 50 years, and is three times more common in women than in men 4 26 27. Brown tumours are histologically similar to giant-cell tumours, giant-cell regenerative granulomas, cherubism and aneurysmal osseous cysts 2 3…”

Sum maryPrimary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is the third most common endocrine disorder. The clinical manifestations primarily involve the kidneys and the skeletal system. Pathologic bone fractures and proximal myopathies are rare conditions associated with PHPT. Early brachial plexus lesion secondary to clavicle fracture is very rare as well. The present case is of importance since it includes all of the three above-mentioned rare conditions. A 43-year-old female patient presented with complaints of pain and weakness in the right arm and limitation of movements in the right shoulder after a minor trauma. According to clinical, laboratory and radiological examination, she was diagnosed as having PHPT and traumatic right brachial plexus lesion due to pathologic fracture of clavicle, as well as hyperparathyroidism associated with secondary osteoporosis and myopathy. The patient underwent parathyroid surgery. After the surgery, a rehabilitation program including range of motion and strengthening exercises was given. PHPT may be diagnosed in an advanced stage of the disease. Therefore, clinicians should keep in mind that PHPT may present with complications of hyperparathyroidism.

Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) has become an asymptomatic disease in the Western world with the introduction of routine calcium screening. However, the same phenomenon is not observed in India. We have now systematically reviewed the status of PHPT in India. While there is a paucity of literature on PHPT from India when compared to Western countries, some information can be gleaned upon. Most patients present with symptomatic disease whereas very few are screen-detected cases (bone disease 77%, renal disease 36%, and 5.6% asymptomatic). Mean calcium, parathyroid hormone (PTH), and alkaline phosphate levels are high while Vitamin D levels are low. The average parathyroid gland weight is large and the majority being parathyroid adenomas (89.1%). Hungry bone syndrome (HBS) is common in the postoperative period. The disease-related mortality rate is 7.4%, recurrence 4.16%, and persistent disease 2.17%. We suggest that dedicated efforts are needed to pick up asymptomatic disease in India by methods like incorporating calcium estimation in the routine health check-up programs.
