Sacroiliac joint involvement in primary hyperparathyroidism: pathogenetic considerations

Clin Exp Rheumatol. 1992 May-Jun;10(3):263-5.

Abstract

The present report describes the first case of primary hyperparathyroidism with monolateral sacroiliac ankylosis assessed by coronal CT scans. The coexistence of ankylosis with erosive changes, without features of spondyloarthritis or degenerative changes, could be related to hyperparathyroidism.
