Postoperative pancytopenia in a patient with giant parathyroid adenoma and brown tumor: a case report.
Article in BMC endocrine disorders, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundParathyroid adenoma is the primary cause of primary hyperparathyroidism, commonly presenting with elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) and blood calcium levels. Chronic primary hyperparathyroidism often results in bone destruction, resulting in the formation of brown tumors. The preferred clinical treatment for parathyroid adenoma is parathyroidectomy. Postoperative pancytopenia, although rare, is a critical complication that warrants further investigation into its mechanisms and management strategies. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a case of a 59-year-old female patient who was admitted due to nausea and vomiting. Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) revealed a mass posterior to the left thyroid lobe and multiple areas of fibrocystic osteitis throughout the body. Hematological tests showed elevated serum calcium and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. The patient subsequently underwent parathyroidectomy, and pathological examination confirmed the presence of a parathyroid adenoma. Postoperatively, the patient developed pancytopenia and received symptomatic treatment such as correction of anemia and elevation of white blood. At the two-month follow-up, all indicators had returned to normal.
conclusionsPancytopenia is commonly seen in bone marrow diseases, infections and immune-related disorders, nutritional deficiencies, and metabolic diseases. This case confirms that pancytopenia can also occur postoperatively in patients with parathyroid adenoma. Therefore, Clinicians should be aware of the potential for postoperative pancytopenia following parathyroidectomy and the need for prompt management.
