Multidisciplinary approach to atypical parathyroid tumours and severe hypercalcemia: a case report.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Atypical parathyroid tumours (APTs) are a recently classified parathyroid neoplasm with uncertain malignant potential that necessitates cautious management and surveillance. Little data exists regarding clinical and biochemical manifestations of APTs and their delineation from other parathyroid neoplasms, especially parathyroid carcinomas. This case report provides further data in the form of clinical features and perioperative parathyroid hormone trends to increase the understanding of factors that can inform the differential diagnosis of parathyroid neoplasms. This case also highlights the role of multidisciplinary management of APTs and ongoing surveillance in the context of ongoing primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) post-resection.
