Parathyroid Auto-transplantation Mimicking Liposarcoma

Parathyroid autotransplantation is an increasingly common procedure given the increasing rate of hyperparathyroidism. However, post-autotransplantation imaging is not commonly performed and the imaging findings can mimic liposarcoma. Therefore, radiologists should be aware of the imaging characteris...

description Parathyroid autotransplantation is an increasingly common procedure given the increasing rate of hyperparathyroidism. However, post-autotransplantation imaging is not commonly performed and the imaging findings can mimic liposarcoma. Therefore, radiologists should be aware of the imaging characteristics of parathyroid autotransplantation. Here we discuss the CT and Tc99m-Sestamibi 4D-CT findings of parathyroid autotransplantation. We will also discuss the pathophysiology of liposarcoma and present the gross histological findings seen on pathology.
