Abstract

The clinical course and histologic characteristics of recurrent hyperparathyroidism due possibly to peroperative seeding of parathyroid cells are described in four cases--two of parathyroid adenoma, one of parathyroid hyperplasia associated with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 and one of parathyroid carcinoma. The observations underline the necessity for careful handling of parathyroid lesions during extirpation, and that the multiple nodules of implanted parathyroid tissue can be curatively excised in some cases.
