Description
Natalie A Moreno and co-authors present a 2026 case report on an adrenal cancer that secretly made parathyroid hormone. A 53-year-old man's large adrenal tumor was removed, then returned two years later alongside high blood calcium. Surgery and drug therapy settled things briefly, until calcium and parathyroid hormone climbed again and a neck gland was blamed and removed, without effect.
When the adrenal cancer recurred once more, removing it normalized calcium and hormone levels at last. Staining proved the tumor itself produced the hormone, while a true parathyroid adenoma also sat in his neck. The authors call the pairing a first of its kind.
