CancerIndex

CancerIndex is a research and information platform. It is not a physician, does not diagnose, and does not recommend treatment. Population statistics do not predict individual outcomes.

Every number links to its source and retrieval date. Derived metrics carry a formula version. AI-generated synthesis is not enabled in this phase; all content is database-grounded.

Definition

What this entity is

A carcinoma that arises from the parathyroid gland. It is associated with the symptoms of primary hyperparathyroidism, resulting from the excessive production of parathyroid hormone. Morphologically, the differential diagnosis from parathyroid gland adenoma may be difficult. A definitive diagnosis of carcinoma is made only in the presence of capsular invasion, vascular invasion, and/or perineural invasion.

Key figures

At a glance

Each figure carries its unit, period and source; ranks link to "Why this rank?".

No registry-level ancestor: burden figures are published for the mutually exclusive top-level site groups only, and this entity does not descend from one. Global figures (IARC / GLOBOCAN) stay under license review and SEER awaits credentials.
