Three cases of parathyroid neoplasms in familial hyperparathyroidism are reported. There were not associated with other endocrine glands or parathyroid glands lesions. Parathyroid gland carcinoma was diagnosed in 2 cases. Review of 7 cases of familial parathyroid carcinoma, diagnosed in 5 different families and issued from the literature, indicates that it can be associated to multiple endocrine neoplasia or other parathyroid lesions. The familial parathyroid carcinoma entity needs further studies before to be fully recognised.

Postoperative and permanent hypocalcemia after indocyanine green (ICG) angiography-guided total thyroidectomy and central neck dissection: A retrospective cohort study.

Background: This study aimed to compare the rates of postoperative and permanent hypocalcemia between postthyroidectomy indocyanine green angiography and indocyanine green angiography-guided thyroidectomy performed intraoperatively for identification and preservation of the parathyroids.
Methods: We undertook a retrospective study of 2 cohorts of patients with thyroid cancer undergoing total thyroidectomy and central neck dissection. The first cohort (control group) included patients who underwent postthyroidectomy indocyanine green angiography to predict parathyroid function by scoring the degree of fluorescence (0, black; nonvascularized; 1, gray/heterogeneous: partially vascularized; and 2, white: well vascularized), and the second cohort (angiography-guided thyroidectomy) included patients undergoing initially indocyanine green angiography-guided thyroidectomy to identify the feeding vessels of the parathyroid glands followed by postthyroidectomy indocyanine green angiography.

Hyperparathyroidism is a rare entity in pediatrics. It is defined as the increased production of parathyroid hormone. It may be due to a primary defect of the parathyroid glands (primary hyperparathyroidism) or to a compensatory parathyroid hormone production to correct hypocalcemia states of various origins (secondary hyperparathyroidism).

Introduction And Importance: Surgical management of huge multi-nodular goiters present clinical and surgical management dilemma among practicing surgeons. Thyroidectomies pose huge risk potential when performed by relatively inexperienced and junior operators.
Case Presentation: We present a case of a 40-year-old lady who had presented at our center with a ten-year history of painless anterior neck swelling.

Endocrine surgery in multimorbid, frail and geriatric patients is increasing, is often urgent and characterized by special risk constellations. Successful parathyroid gland surgery nearly always results in a marked improvement, irrespective of the specific risk profile of the patient. Except for critical intubation and mediastinal interventions in the risk profile, surgery of the thyroid glands is predominantly beneficial and justifiable even in frail patients.
