RESUMEN
Los quistes de paratiroides son lesiones raras que aparecen en el cuello y en el mediastino anterior. Menos de 300 casos han sido publicados en la literatura. Los quistes de paratiroides constituyen solo el 0,6% de todas las lesiones de tiroides y paratiroides, pero deben ser considerados como diagnóstico diferencial en pacientes con masas cervicales anteriores, particularmente asociados a hipercalcemia. No se encontraron casos reportados en la literatura médica de quistes de paratiroides asociados a carcinoma de la glandula tiroides.
ABSTRACT
Parathyroid cysts are rare lesions arising in the neck and anterior mediastinum. Fewer than 300 cases have been published in the literature. Parathyroid cysts constitute only 0.6% of all thyroid and parathyroid lesions, but should be considered in the differential diagnósis of anterior neck masses, particulary in the presence of hypercalcemia. Were not cases reported in the medical literature of parathyroid cysts associated to carcinoma of thyroid gland.
