Pathologic fractures in a patient with renal osteodystrophy. Failure of early detection on bone scans.

abstract：:Hyperfunctioning thyroid adenomas causing thyrotoxicosis (Plummer's disease) is not an uncommon cause of hyperthyroidism in the elderly. Most commonly, the adenoma appears as a so-called "hot" nodule on thyroid scintigraphy causing suppression (i.e., nonvisualization) of the remainder of the gland. This report describ...
