This report details two rare cases of non-functional parathyroid cysts. Surgery is the recommended treatment for these benign cysts, which are infrequently symptomatic.

Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Surgical Pathology

Background:

  • Parathyroid cysts are rare, benign endocrine neoplasms.
  • While most are non-functional, a subset can cause primary hyperthyroidism.

Observation:

  • Two cases of parathyroid cysts are presented.
  • One cyst presented with symptoms, while the other was an incidental finding during thyroidectomy.
  • Both cysts were confirmed as non-functional.

Findings:

  • Parathyroid cysts are exceptionally rare, with approximately 300 cases documented in medical literature.
  • Non-functional cysts are more common than functional ones.
  • Surgical intervention is the primary treatment modality.

Implications:

  • Highlights the rarity and typical non-functional nature of parathyroid cysts.
