Abstract

Thyroid hemiagenesis is an infrequent congenital disorder which is rarely associated with hyperparathyroidism. We present a case of an adult woman who presented with hyperparathyroidism and ipsilateral thyroid hemiagenesis. Parathyroid adenoma was excised by minimal invasive parathyroidectomy.
