Osteítis fibrosa - Treatment

Nombres alternativos

Osteítis fibroquística

Tratamiento:

La mayoría de los problemas óseos de la osteítis fibrosa son normalmente reversibles con cirugía.

La mayoría de los pacientes con hiperparatiroidismo no tienen ningún síntoma y a muchos se le puede hacer seguimiento con exámenes de sangre y mediciones de los huesos. Otros pueden necesitar cirugía para extirpar la(s) glándula(s) paratiroide(s) anormal(es).

Si la cirugía no es posible, algunas veces se pueden usar fármacos para bajar los niveles del calcio.

Complicaciones:

Algunas de las complicaciones de la osteítis fibrosa son las fracturas, dolor y deformidades de los huesos. Puede haber otros problemas debido al hiperparatiroidismo, tales como cálculos renales e insuficiencia renal.

Situaciones que requieren asistencia médica:

Consulte con el médico si presenta dolor o sensibilidad en los huesos o síntomas de hiperparatiroidismo.
