Multiple Metastases of Parathyroid and Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma in a Female Patient Treated with Long-Term Hemodialysis.

Parathyroid cancer is a rare, clinically aggressive malignancy with a prevalence of approximately 0.005% relative to all carcinoma cases and 1-5% among patients with primary hyperparathyroidism. Prognosis largely depends on the extent of the primary surgery. Non-radical surgical treatment increases the risk of local and distant metastases of the parathyroid cancer associated with limited treatment options. The combination of thyroid and parathyroid disorders has been described rather well for the general population; however, cases of parathyroid and thyroid carcinoma in the same patient are extremely rare (1 case per 3000 patients with parathyroid disorders). We present a rare clinical case of combination of parathyroid and thyroid cancers with metastases of both tumors to the neck lymph nodes in a woman with a mutation in the 1 gene (NM_130799.2): c.658T > C p.Trp220Arg (W220R), who has been exposed to radiation for 20 years before diagnosis of thyroid cancer and received renal replacement therapy with long-term hemodialysis before the diagnosis of parathyroid cancer. The patient underwent several surgeries because of metastases of the parathyroid cancer in the neck lymph nodes. Surgeons used intraoperative navigation methods (single-channel gamma detection probe, Gamma Probe 2, and fluorescence angiography with indocyanine green (ICG)) to clarify the volume of surgery. Currently, the patient is still in laboratory remission, despite the structural recurrence of tumors.
