An unusual mediastinal giant parathyroid adenoma: A rare case report
Parathyroid adenoma is the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism. Giant parathyroid adenoma is considered a rare subtype of parathyroid adenomas that weigh more than 3.5 grams and cause a small number of adenoma related hyperparathyroidism. We

ABSTRACT MEN2A may present with bilateral pheochromocytoma a decade before medullary thyroid carcinoma. This case highlights that high‐risk RET mutations must dictate surgical management regardless of benign cytology. Furthermore, it underscores the necessity of lifelong surveillance for late adrenal recurrences presenting as hypertensive crises.

Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor Leading to a Diagnosis of Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1
ABSTRACT Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms are rare but occasionally encountered. They are generally highly vascularized solid tumors, often round in shape with clear boundaries, defined contours, and a homogeneous internal structure. However, they can also present with atypical features, such as cystic degeneration, hemorrhage, calcification, and ...
