Multicenter Study of 19 Aortopulmonary Window Parathyroid Tumors: The Challenge of Embryologic Origin

Abstract: Abnormal parathyroid glands situated in the APW are rare and usually identified after an unsuccessful cervical exploration. Preoperative imaging of the mediastinum and neck are essential. The origin of these ectopically situated tumors is probably, as suggested by our data, from a supernumerary fifth parathyroid gland or from abnormal migration of a superior parathyroid gland during the embryologic development.

In this context, biochemical and hematological markers of systemic embolism may also be used for prognosis in PE.…”
