Prostate carcinoma is the most common cancer in men. After local therapy, disease recurs in many patients. A choline PET/CT is indicated in case of biochemical relapse of prostate carcinoma to determine the site of recurrence (local and/or distant) and to help select the next line of therapy. Choline PET-CT is also known to show an elevated uptake in hyperfunctioning parathyroid adenoma. This case report shows the difficulty to distinguish between both entities if they occur simultaneously in an oncologic patient.

Hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome (HPT-JT) is a rare hereditary disorder caused by pathogenic gene variants. We report the case of a patient with HPT-JT who carried a novel germline pathogenic variant. A 27-year-old woman presented with thirst, polyuria, fatigue, constipation, and a history of fibro-osseous mandible lesions and endometrial polyps.

Parathyroid cancer is an extremely rare malignancy that usually leads to hyperparathyroidism. The aim of this report is to present clinical and ultrasonographic features of tumors in six patients (5 females; mean age 53.2 years) treated for parathyroid carcinoma at the Department of Nuclear Medicine during 20 years.

Background: Radioactive iodine (RAI) is a common treatment for various thyroid diseases. Previous studies have suggested susceptibility of parathyroid glands to the mutagenic effect of RAI and the development of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). We tested the possible link between prior RAI treatment, disease presentation, and treatment outcomes.

Background: Primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is the third most common endocrine system disorder. Parathyroidectomy (PTx) is the gold standard of care in symptomatic patients. Patients who are not surgical candidates may benefit from percutaneous ethanol ablation, which is a minimally invasive procedure.

Contex: Detection of parathyroid incidentalomas (PTIs) by ultrasonography (US) generally depends on clinical experience and it can be usually confused with perithyroidal lymph nodes.
Objective: We aimed to evaluate the role of US for the detection of PTIs and define clinicopathologic features of PTIs detected during routine neck US.
Design: In this retrospective study, we studied PTIs in a multidisciplinary clinical approach of nuclear medicine and general surgery clinics.
