Water Clear Parathyroid Adenoma: A report of 2 cases
Keywords:
Water clear, parathyroid adenoma
Abstract
Hyperparathyroidism occurs mainly due to parathyroid hyperplasia, adenoma and rarely carcinoma. Most of the adenomas are composed of chief cells. Water clear cell adenoma are a rare phenomenon. We are sharing two cases of parathyroid adenomas composed entirely of water clear cells and requires high degree to suspicion to identify them as they have low endocrinological activity.
