Parathyroid Localization [PDF]
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1986 Twenty-nine consecutive patients with suspected primary hyperparathyroidism were examined preoperatively using ultrasound, sonographically guided fine needle aspiration, and aspirate immunostaining for PTH. In 25 patients, localization of enlarged parathyroid glands was successful.

Giant Parathyroid Tumor: Parathyroid Adenoma versus Parathyroid Carcinoma [PDF]
Case Reports in Endocrinology, 2022 Parathyroid adenoma is the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). We present the preoperative detection of a giant parathyroid adenoma (GPA) using (99mTc)-sestamibi parathyroid scintigraphy in a patient presenting with severely elevated parathyroid hormone, hypercalcemia, hypophosphatemia, and vitamin D insufficiency.

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1999 Parathyroid cysts are relatively uncommon. They may be non‐functioning or associated with primary hyperparathyroidism. Three patients are presented, including one with a large mediastinal parathyroid cyst, and these cases illustrate the range of pathological and clinical features.

Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2018 Parathyroid carcinoma (PC) is a rare disease with an indolent behavior due to the low malignant potential. The etiology is unknown. Somatic mutations of CDC73 gene, the same gene involved in the hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome, can be identified in up to 70% of patients with PC and in one-third of cases the mutations are germline.
