  • Title: [Giant cell lesions of the maxilla disclosing primary hyperparathyroidism].
    Author: Aoune S, Khochtali H, Dahdouh C, Turki A, Mokni M, Bakir A.
    Journal: Rev Stomatol Chir Maxillofac; 2000 Apr; 101(2):86-9. PubMed ID: 10859760.
    Abstract:
    We report 2 cases of giant-cell lesions of the maxilla in two female patients aged 42 and 22 years. The initial diagnosis was giant-cell tumor and giant-cell repair granuloma. The diagnosis of brown tumor was established at discovery of primary hyperparathyroidism. We emphasize the importance of searching for hyperparathyroidism in patients with a giant-cell lesion of the maxilla.
