Abstract

Here we report a 53 yr old diabetic female presenting with chronic pancreatitis, cholelithiasis. Initially, we thought her symptoms to be attributed in the background of chronic pancreatitis and Diabetes. Considering to her age, psychiatric manifestations, and no improvement in her clinical status, we investigated her parathyroid status. Finally we arrived to the diagnosis of parathyroid adenoma and she was operated, following which she improved dramatically.
A discrete evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of a parathyroid adenoma in a patient with type 2 diabetes, chronic pancreatitis, cholelithiasis, and neuropsychiatric manifestations.
