Abstract

Parathyroid carcinoma is a rare neoplasm, accounting for less than 1% of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism. Parathyroid carcinoma usually manifests during the fourth decade. A 77- year old female patient presented with weakness. The patient's laboratory results showed serum calcium (Ca) value of 13.6mg/dl (reference range:8.4-10.2 mg/dl), serum parathormone (PTH) value of 385pg/ml (15-65 pg/ml) and the patient's condition was concluded to be primary hyperparathyroidism. In parathyroid scintigraphy, the late images taken 2 hours after the injection of 25mCiTc-99m MIBI revealed focal sestamibi retention in the zone corresponding to the thyroid left lobe lower pole inferior (Figure 1). Considering parathyroid adenoma, parathyroidectomy was performed. The pathology result was parathyroid carcinoma. Although the disease is most common in the fourth decade, parathyroid carcinoma should be considered as a rare malignancy in the elderly.

Özet

Paratiroid karsinom nadir bir neoplazm olup, primer hiperparatiroidizm saptanan olguların %1'inden azında görülür. Paratiroid karsinom genellikle dördüncü dekadda görülmektedir. 77 yaşında bayan hasta halsizlik yakınmasıyla başvurdu. Hastanın laboratuvar incelemesinde serum kalsiyum değeri 13.6 mg/dl (referans aralık: 8.4-10.2 mg/dl), serum parathormon değeri 385 pg/ml (referans aralık: 15-65 pg/ml)olarak saptandı ve hastada primer hiperparatiroidizm düşünüldü. Paratiroid sintigrafisinde 25mCi Tc-99m MIBI'nin enjeksiyonundan 2 saat sonra alınan geç görüntülerde, tiroid sol lop alt pol inferioruna uyan alanda fokal sestamibi retansiyonu izlendi. Hastada paratiroid adenom düşünülerek paratiroidektomi uygulandı. Patoloji sonucu paratiroid karsinomu olarak değerlendirildi. Paratiroid karsinom en sık dördüncü dekadda görülse de yaşlı hastada nadir bir malignite olarak görülebilmektedir.
