  • Title: Combined transcervical and thoracoscopic mediastinal parathyroid adenoma resection.
    Author: Siddiqi MS, Al Badai Y, Al Kemyani NA, Al Kindi AH.
    Journal: Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann; 2016 Jul; 24(6):593-6. PubMed ID: 27206778.
    Abstract:
    The routine approach for excision of a parathyroid adenoma is transcervical, but this approach is inadequate when the gland is located in the mediastinum. Traditionally, these cases have required a sternotomy or thoracotomy. We used a combined transcervical and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery approach to resect a parathyroid adenoma that extended to the middle mediastinum.
