From the Old, the Best: Parathyroidectomy in the Management of Soft-Tissue and Vascular Calcification in Patients with Chronic Renal Disease

Introduction. Bone mineral disease in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD-MBD) is a clinical syndrome involving bone, biochemical changes, and extraosseous calcification. These complications increase morbidity and mortality. Prevalence reports are rare. Case Report. This case shows a young wom...
