ABSTRACT
Introduction: brown tumors are rare focal giant cell lesions of the bone, are
expression of osteitisfibrosacystica due to primary, secondary, or tertiary
hyperparathyroidism. It is well recognized that these brown tumours can be
mistaken for malignancy.
Objetive: to describe a case of a patient under hemodialysis treatment with Brown
tumours due to secondary hyperparathyroidism.
Case Presentation: we describe a 60-year-old female hemodialysis patient with
secondary hyperparathyroidism in whom osteolithic lesions in long bones, ribs and
clavicle were radiologically suspected to be brown tumor. Multiple vascular
calcifications were also seen.
Conclusions: this manifestation of secondary hyperparathyroidism can be
expected to occur with increased longevity of patients with renal failure. A
complete evaluation can help to reach a correct diagnosis.
