Secondary refractory hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is usually resolved with total parathyroidectomy. On the other hand, SHPT is associated with persistent hyperparathyroidism as a result of inadequate resection of the parathyroid tissue or by a fifth gland not previously detected. The objective of this work is to present the case of a patient with persistent SHPT and the surgical strategy used for the resection of a hyperfunctional ectopic parathyroid in the thorax.
