Abstract
Mediastinal parathyroid adenoma represents a distinct subset of primary hyperparathyroidism and requires a specific diagnostic and therapeutic approach. In these cases ioPTH monitoring is a reliable and effective method to confirm curative resection. It is an important adjunct predictor of postoperative successful outcome, which allows a low failure rate and avoids unnecessary reoperations.
