“…Aggregates of osteoclasts, reactive giant cells and hemorrhagic debris occasionally form a mass known as brown tumor, which represents the terminal stage of bone remodeling [3]. Brown tumors rarely complicate PHPT (in 3% of cases) [8] and may be asymptomatic [9]. Symptoms related to brown tumors depend on their size, their site and the nature of the adjacent structures.…”

“…Bone pain, fractures and neurological deficit were described [10,11]. These lesions and related symptoms usually regress after correction of the hyperparathyroidism [9]. Brown tumors have no specific radiological features and appear as single or most frequently multiple well-defined osteolytic lesions of the axial or appendicular skeleton that can be mistaken for bone malignancies [3,6].…”

“…The absence of periosteal reaction or soft tissue invasion suggests their benign nature [11,12]. The appearance of brown tumors is not specific on the bone scan either, where they result in foci of increased uptake which may look like bone metastases [9]. Nevertheless, associated scintigraphic features of metabolic bone disease may suggest PHPT and thus brown tumors.…”

Introduction: Primary hyperparathyroidism is a common disease especially in women but rarely discovered by multiple brown tumors with near normal serum calcium.Case report: A 64-year-old man presented with disseminated bone pain. He had X-rays and a CT scan that objectified lytic lesions. These lesions correspond to multiple areas of intense uptake in bone scan evoking brown tumors. Biology showed calcium at 2.66mmol/l and PTH in serum at 2003µg/l. The diagnosis of parathyroid adenoma was highly suspected that's why we did a Tc99m sestamibi dabble phase parathyroid scan. It showed a left inferior parathyroid adenoma. Conclusion:The scintigraphic imaging is a valuable contribution to the diagnosis of brown tumor, it also allows for the etiologic diagnosis by detecting the nodule parathyroid.
