BACKGROUND: Approximately 2% of ectopic parathyroid glands reside within the mediastinum in a location that requires a thoracic approach.
METHODS: All patients with mediastinal parathyroid tumors who underwent anterior mediastinotomy were included in this review.
RESULTS: Over the course of 16 years, 10 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism underwent anterior mediastinotomy. There were 6 men and 4 women with a median age of 65. Seven patients had undergone at least one previous cervical exploration. Preoperative calcium levels were 11.3 +/- .8 mg/dL. Nine patients had preoperative localization with radionuclide scans and 9 patients also had preoperative computerized tomography or magnetic resonance imaging scans. An abnormal gland was removed in all cases. Nine of 10 patients had normalization of their calcium levels.
CONCLUSIONS: Anterior mediastinotomy after preoperative imaging has proven to be a technically feasible, safe, and effective method for the surgical management of patients with sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism and mediastinal parathyroid tumors.
