Artigo Adynamic bone disease(Jornal Brasileiro de Nefrologia, 2021-06-14) Oliveira, Rodrigo Azevedo de; Gueiros, Ana Paula Santana; Carvalho, Aluizio Barbosa; 0000-0003-1617-6759Deve-se suspeitar de doença óssea adinâmica (DOA) em pacientes idosos, diabéticos, paratireoidectomizados, tratados intensivamente com calcimiméticos, calcitriol ou análogos, naqueles expostos ao alumínio ou à sobrecarga de cálcio, quer seja por via oral ou pelo dialisato com alta concentração de cálcio (3,5mEq/L) por tempo prolongado (Evidência). A doença óssea adinâmica (DOA) representa uma entidade clínica bem definida dentre os distúrbios do metabolismo mineral e ósseo da doença renal crônica (DMODRC).Artigo Mucormycosis-induced hypercalcemia: a case report(Springer, 2023-05-15) Oliveira, Rodrigo Azevedo de; Lucena, Larissa Araújo de; Oliveira, Fernanda Gurgel de; Andrade, Maíra Medeiros Pacheco de; Paula, Kalyanne Cabral de; Praxedes, Marcel Rodrigues Gurgel; 0000-0003-1617-6759Hypercalcemia is a vital laboratory marker because it can show underlying severe diseases like cancer and infections. Of all the causes of hypercalcemia, primary hyperparathyroidism, and malignancies are the most common, but granulomatous diseases, such as certain fungal infections, can also be the cause. Here we describe the case of a 29-year-old woman, an insulin-dependent diabetic, found unconscious and tachypneic at home. In the emergency room, the medical team diagnosed diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and acute kidney injury (AKI). During hospitalization, despite resolving acidemia, persistent hypercalcemia attracted attention. Laboratory tests showed decreased parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels, confirming non-PTH-dependent hypercalcemia. Computed tomography (CT) of the chest and abdomen demonstrated no alterations, but an upper digestive endoscopy revealed an ulcerated and infiltrative lesion in the stomach. A biopsy showed a granulomatous infiltrate due to mucormycosis infection. The patient received liposomal amphotericin B for 30 days and isavuconazonium for two months. Serum calcium levels improved during treatment. Inquiry of the etiology of hypercalcemia should begin with the PTH assay; high levels are consistent with hyperparathyroidism; low levels, with calcium or vitamin D intoxication, malignancies, prolonged immobilization, and granulomatous diseases. In the latter cases, the overproduction of 1-alpha-hydroxylase by the granulomatous tissue increases the conversion of 25(OH)vitamin D into 1–25(OH)vitamin D, which causes the intestinal absorption of calcium. We have described the first hypercalcemia related to mucormycosis infection in a young diabetic patient, although case presentations associate other fungal infections with elevated serum calcium.Artigo Renovascular hypertension associated with an anomalous intrathoracic originated renal artery(Journal Of Medical Imaging And Case Reports, 2022-03-20) Oliveira, Rodrigo Azevedo de; Lucena, Larissa Araújo de; Guedes, Felipe L.; Oliveira, Eric S. R. de; Medeiros Júnior, Fabiano C. de; Oliveira, William S. R. de; Medeiros, Paulo José de; Freitas, Márcio V.; Alves, Guilherme T. A.; Paula, Priscila R. de; Almeida, José Bruno de; Oliveira, Rodrigo A. de; 0000-0003-1617-6759Renovascular disease (RVD) is responsible for 5.8% of secondary hypertension cases in young adults, caused mainly by obstructive lesions due to either atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis or fibromuscular dysplasia. Although the renal arteries’ supradiaphragmatic origin is exceedingly rare, up to date, three cases of secondary hypertension due to single ectopic renal arteries originating from the thoracic aorta have been reported in patients with customarily positioned kidneys. Herein we describe a case of a 21-year-old man with resistant hypertension whose investigation showed an ectopic right renal artery originated from the internal thoracic artery. Although both renal arteries were free of obstructive lesions, the right one was very long and tortuous, causing kidney hypoperfusion. A bypass surgery between the right renal artery and the aorta was performed uneventfully, leading to better blood press control. To the best of our knowledge, there are no previous reports of secondary hypertension due to renal artery arising from the internal thoracic artery.Artigo Supernumerary ectopic parathyroid located in the left carotid sheath(Archives of Head and Neck Surgery, 2018-10-25) Oliveira, Rodrigo Azevedo de; Souza, Ana Karenina Nobre Fonseca de; Lira, Liliane Queiroz de; 0000-0003-1617-6759A 34 years old male patient with chronic renal failure and history of total parathyroidectomy with parathyroid autotransplantation evolved with persistence of elevated PTH, bone pain. Cervical ultrasonography and parathyroid scintigraphy with sestaMIBI revealed changes in the topography of the left submandibular gland. He underwent cervical exploration showing supranumerary ectopic parathyroid, found in the left carotid sheath at I/IIA levels, with histopathological confirmation by frozen section biopsy. On the first postoperative day, serum PTH decreased by more than 95%, thus, confirming operative success. The symptoms improved along the follow up.
