The doctor pointed out that the girl’s entire body is broken like glass when touched, and the endocrine abnormality caused by the tumor should be considered, which will lead to abnormal bone density, and parathyroid cancer in the neck should be highly suspected of adenocarcinomas. However, such cases are very rare. Fortunately, during the treatment, the girl’s illness was cured and her bone density began to recover. Currently, the first hip joint surgery has been performed. With another surgery, you will have the opportunity to live like a normal person … If early diagnosis and effective treatment can be made, tumors can be removed early, fractures and skeletal deformities will not be as severe and to girls the pain of 2 osteotomies can also be spared.
