Nonmedullary thyroid carcinoma is known to occur in association with primary hyperparathyroidism. A combination of secondary, uremic, hyperparathyroidism and non-medullary thyroid carcinoma is rare and was hitherto reported in only 12 cases. We report another three patients with this parathyroid/thyroid disease combination, suggesting that it may represent not merely a coincidence. A number of factors active in secondary hyperparathyroidism may play a role in the induction and/or promotion of the thyroid cancer. These include parathyroid endocrinopathy, goiterogenic effect of prolonged hypercalcemia, and uremia. During surgery on the parathyroid glands, associated thyroid lesions demand special considerations.

D006962 Hyperparathyroidism, Secondary Abnormally elevated PARATHYROID HORMONE secretion as a response to HYPOCALCEMIA. It is caused by chronic KIDNEY FAILURE or other abnormalities in the controls of bone and mineral metabolism, leading to various BONE DISEASES, such as RENAL OSTEODYSTROPHY.

D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.
