A garden of parathyroid adenomas [PDF]
BMJ Case Reports, 2017 Despite improvements in parathyroidectomy success rates, patients with persistent primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) after initial surgery continue to challenge clinicians. Some of the challenges are due to ectopic parathyroid adenomas, including thymic, intrathyroidal, carotid sheath and mediastinal glands, and others are because of supernumerary ...

Substernal oxyphil parathyroid adenoma producing PTHrP with hypercalcemia and normal PTH level
World Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2008 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

Modeling of biological doses and mechanical effects on bone transduction [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology 274, 1 (2011) 36-42, 2011 Shear stress, hormones like parathyroid and mineral elements like calcium mediate the amplitude of stimulus signal which affects the rate of bone remodeling. The current study investigates the theoretical effects of different metabolic doses in stimulus signal level on bone.

Ectopic Parathyroid Adenomas [PDF]
Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 1980 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.

BDG-Net: Boundary Distribution Guided Network for Accurate Polyp Segmentation [PDF]
Proc. SPIE 12032, Medical Imaging 2022: Image Processing, 1203230
(4 April 2022), 2022 Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common fatal cancer in the world. Polypectomy can effectively interrupt the progression of adenoma to adenocarcinoma, thus reducing the risk of CRC development. Colonoscopy is the primary method to find colonic polyps.
