An Unusual Mass of Posterior Mediastinum: A Case of Retrotracheal Parathyroid Adenoma Presenting With Primary Hyperparathyroidism

Although parathyroid ectopy in the mediastinum has been the subject of several publications, its location in the posterior mediastinum is very rarely reported. We report a case of a 69-year-old patient who presented with clinical symptoms of malignant hypercalcemia due to a retrotracheal mediastinal...

description Although parathyroid ectopy in the mediastinum has been the subject of several publications, its location in the posterior mediastinum is very rarely reported. We report a case of a 69-year-old patient who presented with clinical symptoms of malignant hypercalcemia due to a retrotracheal mediastinal parathyroid adenoma. The surgical excision leads to a quick normalisation of the phosphocalcic balance with improvement of the clinical symptoms. Ectopic hypersecreting parathyroid adenoma with life-threatening hypercalcemia should prompt radiological assessment and appropriate surgical management to prevent further clinical complications.
