Abstract Brown tumors or osteitis fibrosa cystica has become a rare presentation of primary hyperparathyroidism in up-to-date clinical practice. Here, we describe a case of longstanding untreated hyperparathyroidism presenting itself with brown tumors in a 65-year-old patient. During the diagnostic work-up of this patient, bone SPECT/CT and 18F-FDG-PET/CT revealed multiple widespread osteolytic lesions. Differentiating from other bone tumors such as multiple myeloma is challenging. In this case, the final diagnosis was made by integrating the medical history, biochemical diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism, pathological findings and medical imaging. |
