초음파에서 갑상선 결절로 오인할 수 있는 부갑상선종의 진단:미세침세척액에서 부갑상선 호르몬 검사가 감별에 도움이 되었던 1예 보고

Abstract

With the widespread use of thyroid ultrasound, the detection rate of parathyroid incidentalomas as well as thyroid nodules has been on the increase. The differentiation between thyroid nodules and parathyroid nodules is occasionally difficult due to considerable overlap in terms of the sonographic findings. A case of parathyroid adenoma diagnosed with a measured parathyroid hormone level after fine needle aspiration washout is presented.
