Abstract

Primary hyperparathyroidism is a common endocrinological disease and most cases are asymptomatic. We report the case of a patient with primary hyperparathyroidism and symptomatic bone lesions. The possibility of different etiologies (adenoma vs carcinoma) according to the clinical manifestations and treatment are also discussed.
