Description
A woman in her 60s who was diagnosed as having hypercalcemia and hyperparathyroidism was referred to our hospital. Serum calcium and intact parathyroid hormone levels were11.4mg/ ml and 107 pg/ml, respectively. Chest computed tomography revealed an enhanced mass measuring approximately1.5cm located in the anterior mediastinum. 99mTc-Methoxy-isobutylisonitrile scintigraphy demonstrated an anterior mediastinal mass. These findings suggested an ectopic parathyroid tumor located in the mediastinum. The patient underwent resection of the parathyroid tumor with video-assisted thoracic surgery(VATS). The operation time was 114 min. The postoperative day1(POD1)calcium level rapidly decreased to8.3mg/ml. The patient was discharged on POD5, and there have been no signs of recurrence 1 year after the surgery. Parathyroidectomy by VATS for ectopic mediastinal parathyroid tumors is advantageous because it is less invasive and more cosmetic. VATS may be used as a standard approach for ectopic mediastinal parathyroid tumors. We report the surgical treatment of a case of ectopic mediastinal parathyroid adenoma using video-assisted thoracoscope.
