BACKGROUND
Neoplasms of the parathyroid are common but parathyroid carcinoma is exceptionally rare. In contrast to most other malignant endocrine tumours that are usually less hormonally active, malignant parathyroid tumours are hyper functional. Malignant parathyroid tumours pose a diagnostic
A 71-yr-old woman presented with progressive weakness, bone pain, polydipsia, and epigastric pain. Laboratory studies established the diagnosis of primary hyperparathy roidism with excessively elevated levels of parathyrod hormone (PTH) complicated by renal failure and anemia. Preoperative imaging
Case records from 21 dogs with hypercalcemia and hyperparathyroidism were evaluated. The dogs were greater than or equal to 7 years old, and 6 were Keeshonds. The most common clinical signs were polydipsia/polyuria, listlessness, and muscle weakness. The serum calcium concentrations were 12.1 to
Parathyroid carcinoma is a rare cause of hyperparathyroidism (rate of occurrence of 0.5% of all parathyroid neoplasms). In this report we describe three cases of parathyroid carcinoma seen in our Institution and we analyse the clinical, diagnostic, therapeutic and pathological findings of this
Hypercalcemia was found in a dog examined for episodic weakness and disorientation. A right adrenal mass identified on abdominal ultrasonographic examination was diagnosed as a pheochromocytoma based on increased 1231-metaiodobenzylguanidine uptake and characteristic histopathological features.
Current primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) clinical presentation is asymptomatic in more than 90% of patients, while symptoms concern osteoporosis and rarely kidney stones. Here, we retrospectively investigated the prevalence of PHPT patients presenting with hypercalcemic-related symptoms (HS-PHPT)
BACKGROUND
Parathyroid carcinoma is the least frequent malignancy among endocrine tumors. In the most reported series of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism the incidence of carcinoma is less than 1%. Racognition by a surgeon that the parathyroid tumor is malignant, and the performance of an
We present case report of primary hyperparathyroidism treated surgically as well as a review of literature concerning this subject. The disease of not well known etiology presents with elevated parathormon levels and hypercalcemia. Primary hyperparathyroidism which states 85% percent of all kinds of
Parathyroid carcinoma is a rare cause of primary hyperparathyroidism (1-2%). In this paper a case of parathyroid cancer of the right inferior parathyroid gland cyst (5 cm in diameter) localised mostly retrosternally is presented in a patient suffering from severe hypercalcaemia (Ca--3.7 mmol/l,
75 years old woman presented with 6-month history of progressive dropped head syndrome. Neurological examination revealed moderate weakness of flexor and extensor of neck and mild weakness of proximal appendicular muscles with normal deep tendon reflexes. The needle electromyography showed short
BACKGROUND
A relationship between primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and obesity has been observed but is incompletely understood. Furthermore, obesity has been associated with vitamin D deficiency, suggesting that the three conditions may be linked.
OBJECTIVE
We hypothesized that PHPT in morbidly
