초록
58-year-old woman visited the hospital complaining of fatigue and indigestion lasting for more than 3 months. She had no medical history other than taking a calcium plus vitamin D supplement for osteopenia. The initial blood test showed a high calcium level of 14.0 mg/dL. Additional tests were performed to differentially diagnose hypercalcemia. The blood test results were as follows: serum parathyroid hormone (PTH)=247.0 pg/mL, PTH-related peptide <1.0 pg/mL, phosphorous=2.6 mg/dL, 25-hydroxy-vitamin D=14.5 pg/mL, creatinine=1.09 mg/dL, and 24 hr urine calcium=215 mg/dL. A 4.5 cm sized cystic lesion on the intra-thyroidal space was confirmed on neck sonography and 4-dimensional parathyroid computed tomography, but technetium-99m methoxyisobutylisonitrile parathyroid scintigraphy showed equivocal results. After removal of the cystic lesion, serum calcium and PTH were normalized, and parathyroid lipoadenoma was confirmed in the postoperative pathology. Clinical features of parathyroid lipoadenoma are known to be similar to common parathyroid adenoma, but imaging studies often report negative findings. Therefore, it is necessary to better understand this rare disease for the differential diagnosis. For the final diagnosis and treatment of this disease, parathyroidectomy with intraoperative PTH measurement may be required.
Abstract
58-year-old woman visited the hospital complaining of fatigue and indigestion lasting for more than 3 months. She had no medical history other than taking a calcium plus vitamin D supplement for osteopenia. The initial blood test showed a high calcium level of 14.0 mg/dL. Additional tests were performed to differentially diagnose hypercalcemia. The blood test results were as follows: serum parathyroid hormone (PTH)=247.0 pg/mL, PTH-related peptide <1.0 pg/mL, phosphorous=2.6 mg/dL, 25-hydroxy-vitamin D=14.5 pg/mL, creatinine=1.09 mg/dL, and 24 hr urine calcium=215 mg/dL. A 4.5 cm sized cystic lesion on the intra-thyroidal space was confirmed on neck sonography and 4-dimensional parathyroid computed tomography, but technetium-99m methoxyisobutylisonitrile parathyroid scintigraphy showed equivocal results. After removal of the cystic lesion, serum calcium and PTH were normalized, and parathyroid lipoadenoma was confirmed in the postoperative pathology. Clinical features of parathyroid lipoadenoma are known to be similar to common parathyroid adenoma, but imaging studies often report negative findings. Therefore, it is necessary to better understand this rare disease for the differential diagnosis. For the final diagnosis and treatment of this disease, parathyroidectomy with intraoperative PTH measurement may be required.
