Parathyroid Cancer Versus Atypical Parathyroid Neoplasm; Investigating Their Clinical Characteristics and Biological Behavior

Completed
Conditions
Parathyroid Carcinoma
Parathyroid Neoplasm
Interventions
Other: Chart Review
Registration Number
NCT03046524
Lead Sponsor
M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
Brief Summary

Objectives:

1. Identify the clinical characteristics of parathyroid (PTH) cancer and PTH atypical neoplasms

2. Investigate if PTH carcinoma and atypical neoplasm present a biological behaviour and have a different impact on the health of the patients

Detailed Description

Data between the years of 1/1/2002 and 12/31/2013 will be analyzed. The medical records of all adult patients that had a parathyroidectomy for primary PHPT in MD Anderson Cancer Center will be screened in order to identify patients that had a histopathological diagnosis of parathyroid carcinoma or atypical parathyroid neoplasm.
