Background: Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder, accompanied by multiple endocrine neoplasms of the parathyroid, pancreas, pituitary, and other neoplasms in the adrenal glands. However, in some cases, patients clinically diagnosed with MEN1 may be genotype-negative.

Case Presentation: A 56-year-old female was diagnosed with MEN1 based on a macroprolactinoma (19 mm in diameter), primary hyperparathyroidism, and a cortisol-producing adrenal adenoma, without a family history.

Background: Surgery is the preferred treatment for primary hyperparathyroidism. Minimally invasive parathyroidectomy is only feasible with accurate preoperative localisation. Virtual 3D anatomical models can be constructed from patient-specific CT scans using segmentation software.

Defining the Thyroid-RLN Entry Triangle for Enhanced Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Exposure in TOETVA: A Retrospective Study.

J Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg

December 2024

Department of Thyroid Surgery, The Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Xiangya School of Medicine, Central South University/Hunan Cancer Hospital, Changsha, P.R. China.

Background: Injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) and parathyroid glands (PGs) are the most common and serious complications during the transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA), and their exposure and protection are the most important factors affecting the operation time. Here, we report a novel anatomical landmark and surgical method to shorten the operative time and reduce the chance of injury to the RLN and PGs.

Methods: According to the different exposure methods of the RLN, patients were divided into the experimental group (from top to bottom, E-group) and the comparison group (from outside to inside, C-group), and 1:1 propensity score-matching (PSM) was performed.

Background: Malignant hypercalcemia is usually caused by osteolytic processes of metastases, production of parathormone-related peptide, or secretion of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D. Ectopic PTH (parathyroid hormone) production by malignancy is very unusual.

Methods: Case report and review of the literature.

Objective: Patients with distant metastatic medullary thyroid carcinoma (DMMTC) often undergo primary tumor resection (PTR) with or without neck lymph node dissection (NLND) before systemic therapy. However, whether these patients benefit from treatment remains unclear.

Methods: Patients with DMMTC were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database between 2010 and 2020.
