Atypical Presentation of a Brown Tumor in a Kidney Transplant Recipient: A Case Report

Brown tumor is a rare complication of secondary hyperparathyroidism. It is exceptionally encountered after kidney transplantation. We here report on a 54-year-old male recipient who developed a brown tumor localized in the right forearm, and whose initial presentation was atypical, mimicking a bone tumor. Hence, diagnosis of brown tumors should be suggested by clinicians in a context of hyperparathyroidism.
