Abstract: Co-existence of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and non-medullary thyroid carcinoma has been previously reported in sporadic case reports and some surgical series, but the majority of cases concerned women with occult papillary carcinomas without cervical lymph node involvement. We present a 71-year man with PHPT and multinodular goiter who was subjected to surgery for single parathyroid adenoma and was found to have synchronous multifocal papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) with cervical lymph node involveme… Show more

“…In accordance to our patients, most reported cases of non-medullary thyroid cancer associated to PHPT have an unifocal, occult and right sided papillary thyroid carcinoma without cervical lymph node involvement [2]. Multifocality, bilaterality and metastasis were reported to be rare [9]. Patients having these concurrent pathologies were commonly middle-aged women probably because of the increased incidence of both these endocrine diseases in females [2,6].…”

“…Nevertheless, this coexistence has also been reported in men [9]. In this association, the PHPT is usually the primary pathology while the PTC is commonly an incidental finding [9].…”

“…In most case reports describing the coexistence of these two lesions, PHPT was usually diagnosed before the identification of the thyroid carcinoma which was usually diagnosed in pathology specimen as an incidental finding after the surgery [2, 5, 6]. However, in our study, most of the cases were admitted by annual thyroid nodule examination, and the parathyroid lesion was prompted by following ultrasound (Table 1).…”

“…Despite the high frequencies of these conditions, the concomitant occurrence of parathyroid adenoma resulting in PHPT and PTC is uncommon (3). Based on the incidence of PHPT and PTC (1,4), the incidence of the co-existence of PHPT and PTC can be roughly estimated to be 0.0023 per 100,000 persons per year (5).…”
