    Area of Science:

    • Endocrinology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Secondary hyperparathyroidism is a common complication of chronic kidney disease.
    • Established secondary hyperparathyroidism can rarely undergo malignant transformation.

    Observation:

    • A case presented with secondary hyperparathyroidism that transformed into tertiary hyperparathyroidism.

    Findings:

    • The malignant transformation of secondary hyperparathyroidism into tertiary hyperparathyroidism is a rare but documented phenomenon.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering malignant transformation in persistent hyperparathyroidism.
    • It underscores the need for careful medical and surgical management in such rare instances.
