In hyperparathyroidism, skeletal changes occur in 13 per cent of severe and long-standing cases (Smith, 1979). These skeletal changes vary from generalized demineralization of bone in early cases to resorption of bone marrow and replacement by fibrous tissue with cystic changes, the latter being termed osteitis fibrosa cystica or brown tumour. These cystic tumours are rare and usually occur in the long bones. Osteitis fibrosa cystica rarely presents in the maxilla as the initial symptom of hyperparathyroidism.
在甲状旁腺功能亢进症中，13%的重症和长期病例会出现骨骼变化（史密斯，1979年）。这些骨骼变化从早期病例中的全身性骨质脱矿到骨髓吸收并被伴有囊性变的纤维组织替代不等，后者被称为纤维囊性骨炎或棕色瘤。这些囊性肿瘤很罕见，通常发生在长骨中。纤维囊性骨炎很少以上颌骨作为甲状旁腺功能亢进症的初始症状出现。
