Mediastinal parathyroidectomy by VATS for persistent, sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism in an adolescent

Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2023
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is an endocrine disorder that is commonly diagnosed in adults. PHPT is less commonly seen in the pediatric age range, and when identified, non-syndromic disease is unusual. PHPT caused by an ectopic parathyroid gland is

Ectopic parathyroid adenoma: A case report [PDF]

, 2023
The parathyroid adenoma can be located in an "ectopic" situation in 10% of cases, secondary to "embryonic migration" anomalies. Retroclavicular location of an ectopic parathyroid adenoma is exceptional.

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

Clinical Case Reports, 2017
Key Clinical Message 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.

MEN1 Deficiency Drives Lung Cancer Progression via Activation of MMP10‐Mediated Angiogenesis

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
MEN1 deficiency promotes JunD‐mediated upregulation of MMP10 expression, which cleaves pro‐HB‐EGF and activates endothelial EGFR. This triggers the PI3K/Akt and MEK/ERK signaling pathways, thereby driving angiogenesis and tumor progression. MMP10 inhibitor treatment blocks this cleavage, suppresses EGFR signaling, and thereby delays malignant ...
