Abstract: Primary hyperparathyroidism is usually caused by a parathyroid adenoma.Paragangliomas secreting parathyroid hormones are very rare tumors.We report a 32-year-old female presenting with primary hyperparathyroidism, initially attributed to a parathyroid adenoma.However, post-surgical resection, the histological and immunohistochemical findings confirmed a diagnosis of paraganglioma.This possibility should be kept in mind while treating cases with primary hyperparathyroidism.
