摘要

We report a 56 years old female, admitted to the hospital for the study of general weakness, constipation, a recent radial fracture, hypercalcemia of 18 mg/dl, hypophosphatemia of 1.2 meq/dl and a serum parathormone (PTH) of 995 pg/ml. A thyroid ultrasound disclosed a nodule of 6 cm diameter. Following emergency management and normalization of the hypercalcemia, that patient was subjected to a total thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy. The pathological study of the surgical piece showed a multiglandular hyperplasia of the parathyroid glands. One of these was located inside the left thyroid lobe.
