Infracentimetric parathyroid cysts in hyperparathyroidemia

In conclusion, heterogeneous E-cadherin expression in parathyroid cells may only indirectly related to cyst formation while CD56 and CD10 seem not to relate at all. The relevance of nuclear clumps and Azzopardi phenomenon as well as of the presence of disperse monocyte/macrophage-type cells for the parathyroiditis lesions remains to be further investigated.
