Sagliker syndrome is a rare complication of renal osteodystrophy, characterized by severe skeletal and cranium deformities, neurologic and soft tissue abnormalities in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) and untreated secondary hyperparathyroidism. This article reports a 29-year-old female patient with end-stage CRF after 9 years of hemodialysis. She had severe secondary hyperparathyroidism, hyperplasia of three parathyroid glands and cranium and skeletal bone structure deformation. The first changes appeared after 4 years of therapy with peritoneal dialysis. They included uglifying face appearances, short stature, severe maxillary changes, chest deformity. During the examination we revealed severe tomographical and X-ray changes: maxillary and mandibular hyperplasia, temporomandibular articulation changes, affected cheekbones, sphenoid bone and bones of the cranial vault, fingertip changes, vertebral body compression. Although surgical parathyroidectomy was effective at biochemical abnormalities, severe bone deformities were not regressed. This case highlights the importance of clinicians’ attention for early monitoring and appropriate treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with end-stage CRF.
