A 7-year-old FS Husky was presented for evaluation of a thyroid mass.
The right medial parathyroid adenoma type lesion revealed capsular expansion. This is strongly suggestive for parathyroid adenoma. Ultrasound guided FNA could be considered for further definition.
Right medial parathyroid in this patient was enlarged and measured 0.44 x 0.34 cm, the remainder of the thyroid appeared unremarkable. The right thyroid measured 1.67 cm x 0.58 cm. The left thyroid was completely atrophied and appeared subnormal in size. Heterogenous, parenchymal changes were noted, consistent with likely the outcome from chronic inflammation. The visible parathyroid appeared normal in this patient, at 0.2 cm.
