title: [Bilateral papillary thyroid carcinoma concurrent with parathyroid adenoma: one case report].
abstract: Concurrent thyroid carcinoma and parathyroid adenoma is rare, they can and do coexist. We present here a 63-year old man who had bilateral papillary thyroid carcinoma and a parathyroid adenoma in the right thyroid lobe. Thyroid cancer was confirmed surgically. After the operation, the patient was found hypercalcemie and hypophosphatemia along with an elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH), indicating primary hyperparathyroidism. Also, the parathyroid 99mTc-MIBI scan demonstrated parathyroid adenoma in the right lower pole of the thyroid. The abnormal parathyroid tissue was carried out, and then serum calcium and PTH levels decreased to normal ranges.
