A large, calcified paratracheal mass was identified in a patient with secondary hyperparathyroidism. The mass proved to be a giant, calcified, cystic, hyperplastic parathyroid gland. Radiographic and ultrasonic imaging techniques were quite useful in diagnostic evaluation. Whenever a calcified mediastinal or neck mass is discovered, especially in a patient with hyperparathyroidism, parathyroid enlargement should be a diagnostic consideration.
在一名继发性甲状旁腺功能亢进患者中发现了一个位于气管旁的大的钙化肿块。该肿块被证实是一个巨大的、钙化的、囊性的、增生的甲状旁腺。放射学和超声成像技术在诊断评估中非常有用。每当发现纵隔或颈部有钙化肿块时，尤其是在甲状旁腺功能亢进患者中，甲状旁腺肿大应作为一种诊断考虑。
