In the primary hyperparathyroidism the vast majority of enlarged parathyroid glands may be excised by cervicotomy. Rarely the excision of ectopic mediastinal parathyroid adenoma, not accessible by cervical incision, necessitates another approach for parathyroidectomy. We report herein the case of primary hyperparathyroidism due to mediastinal adenoma treated by sternotomy with review of the literature for different modalities of treatment for mediastinal localization.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006961 Hyperparathyroidism A condition of abnormally elevated output of PARATHYROID HORMONE (or PTH) triggering responses that increase blood CALCIUM. It is characterized by HYPERCALCEMIA and BONE RESORPTION, eventually leading to bone diseases. PRIMARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM is caused by parathyroid HYPERPLASIA or PARATHYROID NEOPLASMS. SECONDARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM is increased PTH secretion in response to HYPOCALCEMIA, usually caused by chronic KIDNEY DISEASES.
