Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHP) is an uncommon disease in children and adolescents. The association between PHP and slipped capital femoral epiphysis is rare, and so far only four cases have been reported in the literature. Herein, we report a case of PHP due to a parathyroid adenoma, with several
BACKGROUND
Slipped capital femoral epiphysis is a well-recognized skeletal complication of renal osteodystrophy in adolescence, which is distinct from idiopathic slipped capital femoral epiphysis in its etiology.
OBJECTIVE
We report a case of severe mixed-type renal osteodystrophy with metaphyseal
Primary hyperparathyroidism is not common in children and adolescents. Association of slipped capital femoral epiphysis and hyperparathyroidism is rare. We report the case of a 15-year-old boy who presented with pain in both hips and limping. He was diagnosed to have bilateral slipped capital
A 12-year-old patient with a severe traumatic brain injury developed heterotopic ossification (HO) with rapidly decreasing range of motion in multiple joints despite intensive passive range of motion exercises and the use of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). His alkaline phosphatase was
Recent reports of and our own experience with biochemical alterations of liver function secondary to salicylate therapy stimulated this prospective study. Thirty-four children with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, 6 children with acute cartilagenous necrosis of the hipfollowing slipped capital femoral
Recent expansion of the use of recombinant growth hormone (GH) to non-GH-deficient patients demands close attention to possible complications in these patients, including effects on bone, recent studies on the use of GH in children with chronic renal failure (CRF) provide some early data. Animal
Recent extension of the use of recombinant growth hormone (rhGH) to non-growth hormone-deficient patients necessitates close attention to possible complications in these patients, including effects on bone. Recent studies on the use of rhGH in children with chronic renal failure (CRF) provide some
