Mandibular Brown Tumor Revealing Hyperparathyroidism in a Patient With Neurofibromatosis Type I: Case Report

The brown tumor is a non-neoplastic lesion resulting from an abnormality in bone metabolism in the context of primary, secondary, or tertiary hyperparathyroidism. They can affect any bone structure and be single or multiple. They are usually located on the long bones, pelvis, ribs, and collarbones....

description The brown tumor is a non-neoplastic lesion resulting from an abnormality in bone metabolism in the context of primary, secondary, or tertiary hyperparathyroidism. They can affect any bone structure and be single or multiple. They are usually located on the long bones, pelvis, ribs, and collarbones. Facial localization is rare and is found in only 4.5% of brown tumors dominated by mandibular involvement. The treatment of a brown tumor depends on several elements: etiology, location, and symptomatology. It can regress or disappear after the treatment of hyperparathyroidism, thus avoiding surgical removal. Otherwise, excision of this mass is performed. We illustrate through this case a brown mandibular tumor revealing secondary hyperparathyroidism in a patient with a history of end-stage chronic renal failure on hemodialysis and associated neurofibromatosis type 1.
