Intrahepatic ectopic atypical parathyroid tumor causing primary hyperparathyroidism: a case report

Frontiers in Medicine
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) most commonly arises from cervical parathyroid pathology, with ectopic disease representing a rare entity. We report a case of PHPT diagnosed during fracture workup in a female patient who manifested persistent ...

Dual‐isotope subtraction scintigraphy and SPECT‐CT for preoperative localization of parathyroid adenomas

Clinical Physiology and Functional Imaging, Volume 46, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abstract Context Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is often caused by a parathyroid adenoma (PTA). Subtraction scintigraphy with 123I and 99mTc –MIBI SPECT‐CT, and neck ultrasound examination as a hybrid scan (HS) can be used to localize the PTA in order to promote minimally invasive surgery.

Retropharyngeal Ectopic Parathyroid Gland Presenting as Primary Hyperparathyroidism: A Diagnostic Challenge From the Endocrine Perspective

Journal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports
Ectopic parathyroid tissue is an unusual yet clinically significant contributor of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), especially when standard localization studies yield inconclusive results.

Comparison of Ultrasonographic and Computed Tomographic Features of Parathyroid Glands in Canine Primary Hyperparathyroidism

Veterinary Radiology &Ultrasound, Volume 67, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT A multicenter retrospective study compared ultrasonographic (US) and computed tomographic (CT) characteristics of parathyroid glands in 20 dogs with histopathological confirmation of primary hyperparathyroidism. Twenty‐four glands were diseased (17 adenomas and 7 hyperplastic glands).

Thoracoscopic resection of paraesophageal ectopic mediastinal parathyroid adenoma in the superior posterior mediastinum: a case report

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background The ectopic superior parathyroid in the tracheoesophageal groove and paraesophageal region is rare. Hyperparathyroidism results when these glands become hyperfunctioning.

Video-assisted mediastinoscopy (VAM) for surgical resection of ectopic parathyroid adenoma

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2007
Background Ectopic mediastinal parathyroid adenomas or hyperplasia account for up to 25% of primary hyperparathyroidism (HPT). Two percent of them are not accessible by standard cervical surgical approaches.

Immunometabolic Dysregulation in Obesity: Integrating Macrophage Polarization, Metabolic Reprogramming, and Gut Microbiota Crosstalk

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Obesity is characterized by chronic low‐grade systemic inflammation, in which adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs) play a pivotal role in driving immune and metabolic dysfunction. Objective This review summarizes current evidence on the roles of ATMs in obese adipose tissue and examines how macrophage polarization and metabolic ...

Clinical Insights Into Hypercalcemia of Malignancy in Childhood

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 73, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Hypercalcemia of malignancy (HCM) is a rare but life‐threatening metabolic emergency in children that occurs in less than 1% of pediatric cancer cases, with a reported incidence ranging from 0.4% to 1.0% across different studies. While it is observed in 10%–20% of adult malignancies, pediatric HCM remains relatively uncommon.

A Rare Case of Hypercalcemia from Mediastinal Ectopic Hyperparathyroidism

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease
Hypercalcemia is frequently attributed to primary hyperparathyroidism, commonly a result of parathyroid adenomas. Ectopic hyperparathyroidism is characterized by hyperfunctioning parathyroid tissue located outside of expected anatomical locations of ...
