Jayant M, Kaushik R, Kochar S, Attri A K
Abstract: Primary Hyperparathyroidism is most commonly caused by parathyroid adenoma.
Parathyroid adenoma is generally suspected by certain symptoms and biochemical
abnormalities. They rarely attain large size to be evident clinically. We report a rare
case of giant parathyroid adenoma measuring 5x4x3cm and weighing 35 gm.
