摘要
Parathyroid adenoma sometimes present in ectopic location and may pose a difficulty in both diagnosis and localization. We report a case of a young lady suspected to have neuroendocrine tumor of the mediastinum demonstrating synaptophysin positivity on an initial core needle biopsy. Ga-68 DOTANOC positron emission tomography-computed tomography revealed a somatostatin receptor-expressing lesion in the anterior mediastinum with tracer avid multiple lytic bone lesions. On further biochemical and imaging workup with Tc-99 m SESTAMIBI, a diagnosis of ectopic parathyroid adenoma was made which was further confirmed with surgical excision.
