|April 11, 2018
Summary
A misdiagnosed thyroid cancer case highlights parathyroid carcinoma and parathyromatosis. This study details their distinct features, aiding accurate diagnosis and differentiating them from similar lesions.
Area of Science:
- Endocrinology
- Surgical Pathology
- Oncology
Background:
- A patient initially diagnosed with medullary thyroid carcinoma underwent thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy.
- Surgical complications arose due to patient obesity and deep-seated parathyroid glands.
- Post-operative ultrasound revealed neck nodules initially suspected as thyroid cancer metastases.
Keywords:
parathyromatosis - nonfunctioning parathyroid carcinoma - thyroid gland - parathyroid glands.More Related Videos

The Parathyroid Glands
5.3K
The two pairs of parathyroid glands embedded within the posterior surface of the thyroid gland are restricted by a dense capsule around them. These glands comprise two distinct cell populations—parathyroid oxyphil and parathyroid principal cells- pivotal in calcium homeostasis.
Oxyphil cells, whose functions remain elusive, emerge during late puberty, adding a layer of complexity to the parathyroid gland's intricacies. In contrast, principal parathyroid cells undertake a vital role by...

Data Reporting and Recording
5.5K
Reporting and recording are crucial in data documentation. The timely, thorough, and accurate documentation of facts is essential when recording patient data. Failure to record findings during an assessment or interpretation of a problem will result in loss of information and make the patient document unreliable. The reader is left with general impressions if the information is not specific. A recording is documenting data of the individual's health information in a traceable, secure, and...

Reporter Genes
13.4K
Reporter genes are a type of protein-coding gene that are often tagged to a gene of interest. Once inside a target cell, reporter genes usually produce visually identifiable characteristics like fluorescence and luminescence when expressed along with the gene of interest. Thus, reporter genes “report” the presence or absence of genes of interest in an organism, determine the gene expression pattern, or track the physical location of a DNA segment or protein in the cell.
