Clinical characteristics of primary parathyroid adenoma and its relationship with coexisting papillary thyroid carcinoma: a clinical retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Parathyroid adenoma (PA) is a common but relatively poorly understood endocrine tumor. A significant number of PA patients also have papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). The clinicopathological characteristics of PA and its relationship with PTC need further study.

Methods

The clinical data of 99 PA patients were reviewed and the clinicopathologic features of PA were analyzed. PTC occurred in 22 PA patients. The clinicopathologic features of 22 patients with PA + PTC and 77 patients with PA alone were compared. According to age, gender and thyroid surgery methods, 22 PA + PTC patients were matched with 1,123 patients with PTC alone during the same period. The pathological characteristics of the two groups of patients were compared. All data analysis was performed us
