Parathyroid Cysts (PC) comprise rare lesions commonly located in the neck and anterior mediastinal region, being either non-functioning or functioning. Functioning PC can be manifested with signs and symptoms of Primary Hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). We report a case of 59-year-old female patient with symptomatic PHPT, caused by a functioning PC, successfully treated with parathyroidectomy.
