Parathyroid Carcinoma: Case Report

Abstract

Parathyroid carcinoma is a rare disease. It has an incidence of 1% among all hyperparathyroidism diseases. It is difficult to diagnose before the operative period. The nature of the disease is still not well known, therefore the prognostic factors and treatment modalities remain controversial. In this article, we aimed to present a case of parathyroid carcinoma without morbid hypercalcaemic symptoms. Key words: Parathyroid, Cancer, Surgery

Keywords

Paratiroid Kanseri: Olgu Sunumu

Abstract

Paratiroid karsinomu çok nadirdir. Tüm hiperparatiroidilerin yaklaşık % 1'ni oluşturur. Tümörün ameliyat öncesi tanınması oldukça güçtür. Hastalığın özellikleri ve doğal seyri üzerindeki bilgiler yetersiz olduğu için tedavi yaklaşımları halen tartışmalıdır. Biz, bu çalışmada boyunda kitle yakınması ile başvuran ve hiperkalsemi bulguları olmayan bir paratiroid karsinomu olgusunu sunmayı amaçladık. Anahtar kelimeler: Paratiroid, Kanser, Cerrahi

Keywords

• Paratiroid, Kanser, Cerrahi
