Abstract
This case describes a patient with a parathyroid adenoma presenting with dysphagia and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus without demonstrating a parathyroid lesion on imaging. The parathyroid adenoma was detected during surgical exploration and excised which resulted in the normalization of calcium and sodium levels and led to symptomatic relief from dysphagia.
