Optimizing Parathyroid Localization in Real Life: The Role of Expert‐Performed Ultrasonography
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the accuracy of expert‐performed ultrasonography (US) for preoperative localization in minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) compared with community US and other imaging modalities. Study Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting Tertiary referral center for endocrine surgery.

A Case of Mediastinal Parathyroid Adenoma
Parathyroid adenomas are the most important cause of primary hyperparathyroidism. The diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism is established based on the combination of elevated serum calcium and parathyroid hormone levels.

Submandibular Ectopic Parathyroid Adenoma: A Case Report
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a common endocrine disorder characterized by hypercalcemia and elevated or abnormally normal parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels, due to excessive secretion of PTH by 1 or more parathyroid glands.

Nucleic Acids as Emerging Regulators of Calcium Phosphate Biomineralization
Calcium phosphate biomineralization has traditionally been considered a protein‐regulated process. This review highlights the emerging role of nucleic acids, which interact with mineral phases through adsorption, coprecipitation, and templating, thereby influencing crystal nucleation and growth.

Robot-assisted excision of ectopic mediastinal parathyroid adenoma
Robot-assisted excision of an ectopic parathyroid adenoma in the superior mediastinum was performed in a 57-year-old man. The mass was located by methoxyisobutylisonitrile scan and computed tomography.

Video Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) for Excision of an Ectopic Anterior Mediastinal Intra-Thymic Parathyroid Adenoma [PDF]
Ectopic anterior mediastinal parathyroid adenoma is a rare cause of Primary Hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Imaging studies such as Technetium-99m (99mTc) sestamibi parathyroid scan along with a Single Photon Emission Computerized Tomogram (SPECT), and ...

Advances in FGF/FGFR Signaling: Implications for Disease and Therapy
The FGF/FGFR signaling is indispensable for the maintenance of physiological homeostasis and governs multiple biological processes, including embryonic development, bone metabolism, angiogenesis, and neurogenesis, whereas aberrant hyperactivation of this pathway drives the progression of malignancies and autoimmune disorders, including inflammatory ...
