Paget's disease is a condition marked by abnormal bone remodeling, involving both excessive bone formation and destruction, predominantly in the elderly. Pagetic vertebral ankylosis is a rare manifestation, often associated with Paget's disease, ankylosing spondylitis, or diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis. This form of acquired vertebral ankylosis is uncommon and occurs in cases with bone-bridging syndesmophytes or osteophytes.

Article Synopsis
- An environmental bacterium, previously known as a rare pathogen, is seldom linked to human infections but has been associated with cases like sepsis and meningitis.
- A 67-year-old woman with several health issues developed complications after surgery for a broken leg, leading to skin and bone infections caused by this bacterium.
- The case highlights that while serious infections from this bacterium are rare, they can affect immunocompromised patients, marking the first documented instance of osteitis and skin necrosis from this organism.
The challenge of the differential diagnosis between brown tumors and metastases in parathyroid carcinoma: a case report.

Unit of Endocrinology, University Hospital of Pisa, Pisa, Italy.
Background: Brown tumors are rare bone manifestations of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) that may occur at different sites either as single or multiple lesions and they can easily be mistaken for malignant lesions. Neither bone site nor morphological or functional imaging are useful to drive the differential diagnosis and biopsy is often the only conclusive procedure.
Case Description: We report the case of a 53 years-old man referred to our outpatient clinic for severe symptomatic PHPT complicated by nephrolithiasis and osteoporosis.
