Intravagal ectopic parathyroid adenoma: Challenging perioperative localisation
Introduction: Persistent hyperparathyroidism is usually due to a missed parathyroid adenoma, which can be located at variable though well-described locations within the neck and mediastinum due to the gland's embryological descent.

Parathyroid lesions clinically manifest themselves in the form of primary hyperparathyroidism most of the times. Parathyroid adenoma constitutes one of the important causes of the same. Although rare, they pose considerable diagnostic dilemma to the pathologist. A 50-year-old female presented to the surgical outpatient of our hospital with a history of

Substernal oxyphil parathyroid adenoma producing PTHrP with hypercalcemia and normal PTH level
Background Parathyroid adenoma is the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism. Preoperative serum calcium and intact-parathyroid hormone levels are the most useful diagnostic parameters that allow differentiating primary hyperparathyroidism from

Ectopic Parathyroid Adenomas [PDF]
Two cases of parathyroid tumours occurring in unusual situations are described. Such cases may cause difficulty in both the diagnosis and the surgical treatment of hyperparathyroidism. The cases described illustrate the importance of a definitive aetiological diagnosis in hypercalcaemia, if appropriate surgery is to be performed.

Autofluorescence pattern of parathyroid adenomas [PDF]
Abstract Background Primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is a common endocrine pathology, and it is due to a single parathyroid adenoma in 80–85 per cent of patients. Near-infrared autofluorescence (NIRAF) has recently been used in endocrine surgery to help in the identification of parathyroid tissue ...
