Abstract
Pirimer hipertiroidinin en sık görülen nedeni paratiroid adenomudur. Paratiroid adenomlarının %1-3ü ektopik olarak bulunabilir. Ektopik paratiroid adenomlarının yaklaşık %20si mediastende bulunur ve bunların %2sine servikal insizyonla ulaşılamaz. Bu tip vakalar sternotomi veya torokotomi gerektirebilir. Olgumuzda, anterior mediastende çıkan aortla sternum arasında yer alan ektopik mediastinal paratiroid adenomunun neden olduğu ve nadir görülen primer hipertiroidili 23 yaşındaki hastayı rapor ettik. Olgumuzda adenomun rezeksiyonu parsiyel sternotomi ile yapıldı. Serum Ca ve parathormon değerleri postoperatif dönemde normal aralığa geriledi.
Primary hyperparathyroidism(PH) is most commonly caused by parathyroid adenoma and 1-3% of these parathyroid adenomas can be found ectopically. Approxi- mately 20% of all ectopic parathyroid glands are present in the mediastinum, and 2% of these are not accessible through a cervical incision. These cases require sternotomy or thoracotomy. We report the rare case of a 23- year-old patient with PH due to an ectopic mediastinal parathyroid adenoma located in the anterior mediastinum between the ascending aort and sternum. Surgical resection of adenoma was performed through a partial sternotomy. Serum Ca and Parathormone(PTH) levels returned within normal range postoperatively.
