Primary hyperparathyroidism is the main cause of hypercalcemia, resulting predominantly from parathyroid adenomas followed by hyperplasia. Diagnosis relies on clinical and biochemical parameters. Accurate pre-operative localization is mandatory for better surgical outcome.

Hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome is a rare form of syndromic primary hyperparathyroidism. We describe a young female with a history of common precursor B acute lymphoblastic leukaemia who was diagnosed with overt primary hyperparathyroidism due to a pathogenic CDC73 variant (c.25C > T).

The use of transaxillary and transsubclavian approaches for endoscopic thyroidectomy has increased globally. However, studies examining the comparative outcomes of these procedures are scarce. In this study, we aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of thyroidectomy between the gasless endoscopic thyroidectomy transaxillary approach (GETTA) and gasless endoscopic thyroidectomy transsubclavian approach (GETTSA) in patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC).

Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is one of the most common complications of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Vitamin D levels begin to decrease in the early stages of CKD, and these vitamin D-related changes play a central role in the occurrence and development of SHPT. Vitamin D-based drugs, which inhibit parathyroid hormone secretion either directly or indirectly, are commonly used to treat SHPT.

A 51-year-old female patient with diabetes mellitus and hypertension, exhibiting poor control of blood sugar and blood pressure, was unexpectedly found to have multiple large adrenal nodules, excessive cortisol secretion, and adrenocorticotropic hormone inhibition. Cortisol levels remained unresponsive to both low-dose and high-dose dexamethasone tests, leading to a diagnosis of primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia. Concurrently, elevated blood calcium and parathyroid hormone levels, along with 99mTc-methoxyisobutyl isonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) imaging revealing increased 99mTc-MIBI uptake in the right inferior parathyroid gland, suggest the consideration of primary hyperparathyroidism.
