High-Yield Explanation
Brown tumor is usually seen in excess osteoclastic activities, such as hyperparathyroidism. It is a repairative process rather than neoplastic. In hyperparathyroidism there is excess parathyroid hormone (PTH) secreted, which leads to excess calcium resorption from the bones leading to "ostitis fibrosa cystica".
