synchronous Parathyroid carcinoma Parathyroid Adenoma and papillary thyroid carcinoma in a patient with severe and long standing hyperParathyroidism
Endocrine Practice, 2009Co-Authors: Melanie Goldfarb, Patrick Oneal, Judy L Shih, Pamela Hartzband, James L Connolly, Perolof HasselgrenAbstract:Objective—To describe a patient presenting with the rare constellation of synchronous Parathyroid carcinoma, Parathyroid Adenoma, and papillary thyroid carcinoma. Methods—Review of clinical presentation, diagnostic workup, surgical management, and pathological findings, and review of pertinent literature. Results—The patient was a 59-year old man who presented with severe clinical manifestations of longstanding primary hyperParathyroidism (HPT), serum calcium of 14.4 mg/dL, and Parathyroid hormone level of 2,023 pg/ml. The patient was found to have a 3.4 cm Parathyroid carcinoma on the left side and a 3.2 cm papillary thyroid carcinoma on the right side. In addition, a 917 mg Parathyroid Adenoma was found on the right side. Conclusion—Synchronous Parathyroid and thyroid carcinomas are extremely rare. Our patient is the first documented case with a Parathyroid Adenoma in addition to synchronous Parathyroid and thyroid carcinomas. The presence of concurrent Parathyroid carcinoma and Adenoma can cause diagnostic confusion and should be considered in patients presenting with severe HPT. Any concomitant thyroid nodules need to be investigated to rule out thyroid carcinoma.

transoral robotic assisted surgical excision of a retropharyngeal Parathyroid Adenoma a case report
Head and Neck-journal for The Sciences and Specialties of The Head and Neck, 2015Co-Authors: Shethal Bearelly, Brandon L Prendes, Steven J Wang, Christine M Glastonbury, Lisa A OrloffAbstract:Background Transoral robotic surgery has been used with increasing frequency for oropharyngeal malignancies. We present the first known case of a transoral robotic-assisted Parathyroidectomy. Methods/Results A 77-year-old woman with primary hyperParathyroidism was suspected of having a Parathyroid Adenoma. After several nonlocalizing single photon emission CT/CT sestamibi scans, a neck ultrasound revealed a suspicious low level 6 nodule. Surgical excision of this nodule proved to be a reactive lymph node. She then had a dynamic Parathyroid protocol MRI and CT, which revealed a small retropharyngeal Adenoma candidate. A transoral robotic-assisted surgical approach was utilized to bluntly dissect the retropharyngeal space just above the arytenoids to excise the nodule. After excision, the intraoperative Parathyroid hormone (PTH) normalized and surgical pathology confirmed Parathyroid Adenoma. Conclusion Transoral robotic-assisted surgery is a novel technique that can be utilized for resection of a Parathyroid Adenoma in the retropharyngeal space. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
