@entity1 @entity459 @entity5 @entity189 @entity460 @entity3243
BACKGROUND: Risk for atypia and @entity189 in large @entity3243 is not known. Atypia and @entity189 were determined in small (<2 g) and large (>= 2 g) @entity5 in @entity1 undergoing parathyroidectomy for @entity459 . METHODS: The study was a retrospective analysis of a 5-year prospective database. Tumor weight, histopathology, age, gender, @entity460 , and parathyroid hormone levels were registered. @entity1 with 4-gland disease were not included. RESULTS: Among 353 @entity3243 , 313 weighed <2 g and 40 weighed >= 2 g. There was no difference in age between groups. @entity1 with large @entity5 were more frequently @entity1 and had higher @entity460 and parathyroid hormone levels. Atypia was found in 4 of 313 (1.3%) and 7 of 40 (17.5%) small and large @entity5 , respectively (P < .05). Corresponding figures for @entity189 were 1 of 313 (.3%) and 2 of 40 (5.0%) (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: Large @entity3243 have increased risk for atypia and @entity189 . Even so, most large @entity3243 are benign.
