Abstract
A significant number of patients with hyperparathyroidism have palpable thyromegaly. In a man with "goiter" and clinical hyperparathyroidism, a cystic parathyroid adenoma was delineated by thyroid scintiscan. The I¹³¹ thyroid scan may be a valuable adjunct in the evaluation of hyperparathyroidism.
