Study Type: Observational

Official Title: Parathyroid Cancer Versus Atypical Parathyroid Neoplasm; Investigating Their Clinical Characteristics and Biological Behavior

Brief Summary:

Objectives:

  1. Identify the clinical characteristics of parathyroid (PTH) cancer and PTH atypical neoplasms
  2. Investigate if PTH carcinoma and atypical neoplasm present a biological behaviour and have a different impact on the health of the patients

Detailed Summary: Data between the years of 1/1/2002 and 12/31/2013 will be analyzed. The medical records of all adult patients that had a parathyroidectomy for primary PHPT in MD Anderson Cancer Center will be screened in order to identify patients that had a histopathological diagnosis of parathyroid carcinoma or atypical parathyroid neoplasm.
Sponsor: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

Current Primary Outcome:

  • Information Collected on Clinical Characteristics of Parathyroid (PTH) Cancer and PTH Atypical Neoplasms by Conducting a Retrospective Chart Review [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
  • Information Collected on PTH Carcinoma's Biological Behaviour and Impact on the Health of the Patients by Conducting a Retrospective Chart Review [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
  • Information Collected on Atypical Neoplasm's Biological Behaviour and Impact on the Health of the Patients \by Conducting a Retrospective Chart Review [ Time Frame: 5 years ]


Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
