چکیده

Primary hyperparathyroidism due to ectopic parathyroid adenoma is not infrequent. Primary hyperparathyroidism caused by unusual thymic nonadenomatous nonencapsulated parathyroid tissue has been reported before. Both can cause unsuccessful neck explorations. Here we presented for the first time a patient with hyperparathyroidism due to ectopic parathyroid adenoma concomitant to the presence of thymic nonadenomatous nonencapsulated parathyroid tissue.

Concomitant occurrence of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) due to mediastinal parathyroid adenoma and sublingual thyroid gland: the role of parathyroid technetium‐99m‐MIBI scintigraphy

The concomitant appearance of a sublingual thyroid and primary hyperparathyroidism due to parathyroid mediastinal adenoma is not common. This co-occurrence can lead to a misdiagnosis by morphological imaging methods alone. This case emphasizes the role of 99mTc-MIBI scintigraphy in the detection of parathyroid ectopic adenoma in a patient with an ectopic thyroid gland. This more accurate locati...

Atypical non-[99mTc]Tc-MIBI avid parathyroid adenoma with a sternal brown tumor, mimicking ectopic parathyroid adenoma in planar and SPECT images: Importance of SPECT/CT acquisition

Primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is defined by the excess level of parathyroid hormone (PTH). Parathyroid adenoma is responsible for about 80% of all pHPT. Parathyroid adenoma with cystic feature and atypical pathology is recognized as a rare entity. Technetium-99m methoxy isobutyl isonitrile ([99mTc]Tc-MIBI) scintigraphy has favorable detection rate for ectopic gland as well as th...

Intrathymic ectopic parathyroid adenoma caused primary hyperparathyroidism with vitamin D deficiency several years after bariatric surgery

Up to 25% of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism have ectopic parathyroid adenoma. A 45-year-old formerly obese woman underwent extended thymectomy for a parathyroid adenoma located in hyperplastic thymic tissue, associated with primary hyperparathyroidism and severe vitamin D deficiency, but normal bone mineral density. At nine months follow-up, all laboratory test results were within no...

Parathyroid cyst of the thymus.

A case is described of primary hyperparathyroidism in a patient with both a parathyroid cyst within the thymus gland and a concomitant parathyroid adenoma. The parathyroid adenoma contained microcystic areas of degeneration, and it is thought that the parathyroid cyst reflected degenerative change in a pre-existing adenoma. Parathyroid cyst should be considered in the differential diagnosis of ...

Significance of MIBI scintigraphy in a patient with hydatid cyst and parathyroid adenoma

A 17-year-old boy with hyperparathyroidism exhibited a large cyst in the left hemi-thorax on his chest X-ray. The cyst was identified as a hydatid cyst. He was referred for biphasic methoxy isobutyl isonitrile (MIBI) parathyroid scan. A discrete ectopic parathyroid was detected in the left upper mediastinum in addition to accumulation of the MIBI tracer in the cyst wall. Using radio-guided occu...
