Abstract

Parathyroidectomy remains the only definitive cure for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). In rare cases, ectopic hyperfunctioning glands are located in the mediastinum, necessitating a thoracic surgical approach. The objective of this project was to review a single high-volume institutional experience of this presentation, with specific attention to the use of a robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) approach.
