“…Resection is often not done as the tumour spontaneously regress once the parathyroid hormone levels become normal [ 18 ]. It is envisioned only in case the patient wishes for rapid recovery and when it compromises vital functions [ 19 ]. Our case was not operated as the complications of his renal disease ultimately overwhelmed him.…”

Brown tumours are localized bone lesions, seen in patients with high parathyroid hormone levels. This can be due to primary hyperparathyroidism, which occurs more often in neoplasms of the parathyroid gland or due to secondary hyperparathyroidism more often seen as a result of renal impairment. Facial involvement is rare, with most reports focusing on long and axial bones. However, the mandibular bone is often the only bone affected. Here, we report a rare case of a bi-maxillary attainment of brown tumour in a patient with secondary hyperparathyroidism due to chronic kidney disease.

“…3 Those tumors, depending on their location, can cause facial deformity, pain, and difficulty to speak, eat, or even breathe. 5 Blood markers evaluation is therefore essential to lead diagnosis. Brown tumors can also result as a paraneoplastic syndrome due to high levels of parathyroid hormone-related peptide mimicking the effect of PTH.…”

Brown tumors are non-neoplastic bone lesions caused by an abnormal remodeling of the bone that may occur with primary or secondary hyperparathyroidism. Their radiological aspect: lytic and aggressive can easily be misdiagnosed for a malignant origin hence the importance of knowing that diagnosis is to be considered through both clinical context and radiological semiology, which will be detailed via this case of a 32-year-old female patient with an end-stage kidney disease, admitted for facial disfiguration and palpable masses corresponding to brown tumors affecting the maxilla and the mandibular bone.
