Parathyroid neoplasia

Hungry bone syndrome

Parathyroid adenomas are the leading cause of primary hyperparathyroidism. These tumors may be found in atypical sites, such as the mediastinum, and their sizes can vary. During the post-operative period, the bones of some of these patients can have high calcium requirements. This condition, called the hungry bone syndrome, can cause severe crises of hypocalcemia. We report a case of surgical excision of a mediastinal adenoma with subsequent refractory hypocalcemia.
