Parathyroid Carcinoma

Clinical Oncology, 2010
Parathyroid carcinoma is a rare endocrine malignancy. The reported incidence is from 0.5 to 5% of primary hyperparathyroidism cases in various series. The cause is unknown, but clinical correlations with different genetic syndromes exist. Mutations in the HPRT2 gene seem to play a significant role in the pathogenesis of this disease.

Central lymph node dissection and permanent hypoparathyroidism after total thyroidectomy for papillary thyroid cancer: population‐based study

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
Papillary thyroid carcinoma is treated with thyroidectomy with or without central lymph node dissection (CLND). The risk of permanent hypoparathyroidism after CLND was calculated. The results that indicated that CLND is an independent risk factor for permanent hypoparathyroidism. CLND is associated with permanent hypoparathyroidism Background Papillary

Thyroid nodules in children and adolescents: Investigation and management

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 58, Issue 12, Page 2163-2168, December 2022., 2022
Clinically detectable thyroid nodules are less common in children than adults. However, they are associated with an increased risk of malignancy. Therefore, thorough evaluation of paediatric thyroid nodules is necessary, and an understanding of the features associated with a higher risk of malignancy is important to guide management and referral ...

Complications after medullary thyroid carcinoma surgery: multicentre study of the SQRTPA and EUROCRINE® databases

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
This study investigated postoperative complications after surgery for medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) in Europe. Hypoparathyroidism, recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy and bleeding requiring reoperation occurred in 170 (26·2 per cent), 62 (13·7 per cent) and 17 (2·6 per cent) patients respectively.

Programmed death ligand 1 expression levels, clinicopathologic features, and survival in surgically resected sarcomatoid lung carcinoma [PDF]

Asia Pac J Clin Oncol 2020 1 9, 2020
Aim: To determine the programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression rates in sarcomatoid lung carcinomas and to compare clinicopathologic features and survival rates of PD-L1-positive and negative patients. Methods: PD-L1 expression was evaluated in 65 surgically resected sarcomatoid carcinomas.

Ionized hypercalcemia in 238 cats from a referral hospital population (2009‐2019)

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 80-91, January/February 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Ionized calcium concentration ([iCa]) is more sensitive for detecting calcium disturbances than serum total calcium concentration but literature on ionized hypercalcemia in cats is limited. Urolithiasis is a possible adverse consequence of hypercalcemia. Hypothesis/Objectives To describe clinical details of diagnoses associated with

Gastrointestinal symptoms in patients with isolated oligodontia and a Wnt gene mutation

Oral Diseases, Volume 29, Issue 1, Page 300-307, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Objective Since Wnt signaling plays an important role in both tooth agenesis and altered intestine homeostasis, the aim was to compare gastrointestinal symptoms in patients with isolated oligodontia caused by a Wnt pathway gene mutation and controls.
