PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the differences in clinical behavior and immunohistochemical (IHC) biomarkers between parathyroid carcinoma (PC), atypical neoplasm (AN) and parathyroid adenoma (PA).
II. To determine which potential genes can be used in patients with parathyroid tumors for diagnostic purposes.
OUTLINE:
Previously collected tumor tissue and blood samples are analyzed via immunohistochemical profiling for identifying potential genes showing molecular aberrations as other types of cancer.
