Parathyroid carcinoma (PC) accounts for 0.005% of all malignant neoplasms and is usually associated with an unfavourable prognosis. The greatest diagnostic difficulties arise from the atypical location of thyroid neoplasms. The prevalence of ectopic location of parathyroid gland (PG) ranges from 2 to 43%, while the incidence of this anomaly in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism is 16-30%. This article analyses the difficulties in diagnosing PC with atypical location of the thyroid gland, using two clinical cases as examples, and suggests additional methods for a personalised approach.
