Parathyroid Cancer Versus Atypical Parathyroid Neoplasm; Investigating Their Clinical Characteristics and Biological Behavior

February 6, 2018 updated by: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

Objectives:

  1. Identify the clinical characteristics of parathyroid (PTH) cancer and PTH atypical neoplasms
  2. Investigate if PTH carcinoma and atypical neoplasm present a biological behaviour and have a different impact on the health of the patients

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

Data between the years of 1/1/2002 and 12/31/2013 will be analyzed. The medical records of all adult patients that had a parathyroidectomy for primary PHPT in MD Anderson Cancer Center will be screened in order to identify patients that had a histopathological diagnosis of parathyroid carcinoma or atypical parathyroid neoplasm.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Parathyroid Carcinoma
Charts from participants with histopathological diagnosis of parathyroid carcinoma.
Data between the years of 1/1/2002 and 12/31/2013 analyzed.
Atypical Parathyroid Neoplasm
Charts from participants with parathyroid tumors with some atypical features found in parathyroid carcinoma, but not enough histologic criteria to make the diagnosis of parathyroid carcinoma.
Data between the years of 1/1/2002 and 12/31/2013 analyzed.
