Hyperparathyroidism associated with sarcoma of bone

Skeletal Radiol. 1997 Feb;26(2):107-12. doi: 10.1007/s002560050202.

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to report the uncommon association of hyperparathyroidism (one case resulting from an adenoma and the other from chief cell hyperplasia) and sarcoma of bone. The radiographic appearances of both cases were thought to be a little unusual and are discussed in detail. The possible relationship of the sarcomas to brown tumors is discussed.
