Osteoclastomas ('brown tumours') and spinal cord compression: a review
Abstract
Brown tumours are an uncommon manifestation of primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism. There are numerous case reports of brown tumours arising in various parts of the skeleton. They can therefore present a wide range of clinical manifestations. A recent case highlighted the need for heightened awareness of the diagnosis and prompted a literature review.
Keywords: brown tumour; secondary hyperparathyroidism; spinal cord compression.
