2012, Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :The PORT results should be interpreted with caution, as they are all retrospective with a small number of patients in each group. The experience with the role of chemotherapy in the management of parathyroid carcinoma is limited to case reports.119–122 The overall attempts at controlling tumor burden have been disappointing, however, and no cytotoxic regimen with proven efficacy is currently available for patients with parathyroid carcinoma.29,114,115

2007, Endocrine PracticeCitation Excerpt :Less common symptoms include chest pain, dyspnea, or pleural effusion. Patients with nonfunctioning parathyroid carcinoma may be misdiagnosed as having thyroid or thymic carcinoma because these tumors are similar histologically (3-7). Immunohistochemical staining with use of parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcitonin, thyroglobulin, and thyroid transcription factor-1 usually help make the correct diagnosis of parathyroid carcinoma in patients with normocalcemia (8,9).
