Abstract
|
|
|
Embryologically, ectopic parathyroid glands may be found anywhere from the angle of the jaw to the pericardium. Location of the ectopic gland in the pyriform sinus is rarely described. We report a case of an ectopic parathyroid gland as normal function in the pyriform sinus. It appeared as a tumorous lesion in the pyriform sinus and we removed it using an endoscopic approach.
