Parathyroid adenomas, the most common cause of hyperparathyroidism, display diverse histologic patterns. The majority of adenomas form solid masses or show nodular, trabecular, and acinar patterns. In a four-year review of data on 103 surgically resected parathyroid adenomas, we encountered only a single case that showed papillae formation. We report this case to illustrate occurrence of this unusual histologic pattern that might create a diagnostic problem.
甲状旁腺腺瘤是甲状旁腺功能亢进最常见的病因,呈现出多样的组织学模式。大多数腺瘤形成实性肿块,或呈现结节状、小梁状和腺泡状模式。在一项对103例手术切除的甲状旁腺腺瘤数据的四年回顾中,我们仅遇到1例出现乳头形成的病例。我们报告此病例以说明这种可能造成诊断难题的不寻常组织学模式的发生情况。
