Brown tumors (BTs) are relatively uncommon but they are serious complications of renal osteodystrophy. The objective of this study was to analyze the clinical, biological, and radiological characteristics of 16 patients with BTs provoked by secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT) and its response to the decrease in parathyroid hormone levels after parathyroidectomy (PTX). The management of that uncommon condition was also reviewed. We conducted a retrospective study including 16 end‐stage renal disease patients who underwent subtotal PTX between 1997 and 2007 for severe sHPT with BTs. Our study included 10 men and 6 women, whose average age was 34 years. All patients were on dialysis. Ten of them were on dialysis for more than 5 years. The median duration on dialysis was 84 months. Patients included suffered from swellings associated with functional limitations. BTs had multiple locations in 7 patients. Jaw was the most frequent location (62%). Radiography and tomodensitometry demonstrated a mixed radio lucent and radio‐opaque lesions with an expansion of the cortical bone. Bone scan demonstrated an increased uptake of lesions. Chirurgical treatment was indicated in all cases because of severe refractory sHPT with functional limitations and/or disfiguring deformities. In all cases, BTs stopped its progression and even decreased in size. However, it was insufficient in four cases, which required a surgical resection. PTX remains an efficacious approach in resistant cases of sHPT with persistent BTs. 相似文献

Recently, β-Ti-based alloys consisting of non-cytotoxic elements and possessing a low elastic modulus attracted considerable attention for biomedical applications. In addition to low elastic modulus, these alloys must also present a high strength level required to endure stresses. However, it is not easy to find a thermomechanical route in order to achieve low elastic modulus and high strength simultaneously. In this study, we show that severe cold-rolling deformation followed by a short aging treatment on Ti-Nb binary alloys, in order to produce ultrafine grains and/or omega phase, is an effective way to improve both strength and superelasticity. High stress (900 MPa), low modulus (35 GPa), and high recoverable strain (2.5%) are obtained using this route. The obtained results on mechanical properties are explained in relation with microstructure evolution during thermomechanical processing. 相似文献

Thermal degradation of different date palm residues (three fibrous materials and an agro-industrial by-product) under inert and oxidative atmospheres was investigated in order to identify the degradation mechanisms and kinetics of the main thermal decomposition stages using Coats–Redfern method. The corresponding kinetic parameters of the main degradation stages were also determined. The obtained results have shown that diffusion and reaction order models are the best mechanisms describing effectively thermal degradation of the different palm date residues under both atmospheres. The obtained kinetics parameters may help predicting the pyrolysis and combustion behavior of date palm residues as well as designing the suitable reactor. 相似文献
