چکیده

abstract parathyroid adenoma is a benign tumor of the parathyroid glands. the cause of most parathyroid adenomas is unknown. parathyroid adenoma increases the secretion of parathyroid hormone and results in primary hyperparathyroidism. high amounts of parathyroid hormone in the blood cause the imbalance of calcium, which leads to various complications such as kidney stones, depression, lethargy, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, myalgia, bone and joint pain, hoarseness, etc. oropharyngeal dysphagia is defined as having problem in swallowing due to abnormalities in the structure and function of oropharynx and other related organs. the exact prevalence of dysphagia caused by parathyroid adenoma is unknown, but since this complication can lead to increased mortality and morbidity, its diagnosis is important. it is difficult to distinguish parathyroid malignancies from parathyroid adenoma even after surgery. therefore, the final diagnosis is possible through surgery and histopathological evaluation. here, a case of parathyroid adenoma with first presentation of generalized weakness and dysphagia has been reported.
