  • Title: Hyperparathyroid crisis in a pediatric patient.
    Author: Mitchell D, Rybak LP, Glatz FR.
    Journal: Int J Pediatr Otorhinolaryngol; 2004 Feb; 68(2):237-41. PubMed ID: 14725993.
    Abstract:
    Primary hyperparathyroidism is rarely found in the pediatric population. Delays in diagnosis due to vague symptoms can lead to severe disease manifestations such as osteitis fibrosa cystica. We report a rare case of primary hyperparathyroidism in a 13-year-old girl who presented with a pathological femur fracture and numerous brown tumors.
