Abstract

Lipoadenoma is a rare tumor of the parathyroid gland composed of adult adipose tissue and irregular trabeculae of parathyroid cells. This variant of adenoma is poorly documented. Similar lesions that were functional or apparently nonfunctional were reported as adenoma with unusual stromal development and parathyroid hamartoma, respectively. The 2nd case of a functional lipoadenoma of the parathyroid gland is described.
