Introduction Parathyroid carcinoma (PaC) is a rare cause of primary hyperparathyroidism ( Marx 2000 ). It is associated with a poor prognosis, and no curative therapies are available. PaCs occur either sporadically or in family members

Introduction Parathyroid carcinoma is a rare endocrine malignancy and accounts for <1% of cases of sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) ( Marcocci et al . 2008 ). Oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes have been linked to parathyroid

by a single parathyroid adenoma (PA) in about 80% of cases, the multi-glandular disease in 15–20% and parathyroid carcinoma (PC) in less than 1% ( Bilezikian et al. 2018 ). PHPT occurs in up to 90% of patients as a sporadic disease, and in the

Introduction Parathyroid carcinoma (PC) is a slow-growing and rare parathyroid disease associated with highly elevated parathyroid hormone levels and hypercalcemia. PC occurs in less than 1 to <5% of primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) cases

Introduction Parathyroid carcinoma (PC) is a rare endocrine malignancy which accounts for less than 1% of all cases of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) ( Ruda et al. 2005 ). The incidence of PC is increasing, probably secondary to wider

Endocrine Neoplasia (MEN2019), whose main focus was on malignancy in hereditary endocrine tumor syndromes. Parathyroid carcinoma (PC), first described by Sainton & Millot (1933) , is a rare malignant neoplasm involving the parathyroid gland and one of the

Introduction Primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is a common endocrine disorder that is typically caused by benign or malignant neoplasia. Parathyroid adenoma (PAd) is the leading cause of pHPT, while parathyroid carcinoma (PCa) is a rare

with primary hyperparathyroidism, abnormal parathyroid glands have been characterized as being hyperplastic, adenomatous or malignant, but parathyroid carcinoma (PC) is an uncommon finding, accounting for only 1–2% of cases ( Arnaud 1994 , Shane
