title: [A case of primary hyperparathyroidism sustained by parathyroid adenocarcinomatosis].
abstract: Primary hyperparathyroidism may at times be associated with carcinoma of the parathyroids. A personal case of primary hyperparathyroidism was operated on by total thyro-parathyroidectomy. The histological picture presented atypical cell patterns and infiltrations of the thyroid capsule, together with adenomatuous parathyroid formations suggesting the possibility of a malignant transformation of initially benign process. Given the benign clinical course, it is possible that when subjected to radical, timely measures, even atypical parathyroid processes may be cured completely.
