title: Parathyroid carcinoma: a case with recurrence treated with extensive vascular surgery to the neck.
abstract: Parathyroid carcinoma is a slow growing tumor, and the patients most often die from complications to the hypercalcemia. Therefore, any attempt should be made to remove local recurrence and metastasis surgically, as medical treatment is disappointing. A case treated with extensive vascular surgery to the neck is reported.
