Modern Experience with Aggressive Parathyroid Tumors in a High-Volume New England Referral Center

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Clinical distinction between PTCA and atypical adenomas is of critical importance in determining the appropriate extent of resection and follow-up. Loss of parafibromin has not been shown to distinguish between PTCA and atypical adenoma; clearer definition of clinicopathologic criteria for PTCA is warranted and may lead to improved postoperative management.
