Partial median sternotomy was performed in 10 cases and was successful in seven cases (70%), with conversion to a complete sternotomy being required in three cases. Six of these seven patients had failed a previous parathyroid exploration (86%), including one patient who had a previous complete sternotomy. Cure of hyperparathyroidism was achieved in all seven patients undergoing partial median sternotomy. In five patients a mediastinal parathyroid gland was removed (71%), and in one patient a parathyroid adenoma in the carotid sheath was eventually found, and the location of the hyperfunctioning parathyroid gland in one patient was never determined although the patient was cured. The mean length of hospital stay after a partial median sternotomy was 2.6\u00a0days. One patient sustained a recurrent laryngeal nerve injury at the time of a repeat cervical exploration and partial median sternotomy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Rarely, mediastinal parathyroid glands cannot be resected through a cervical approach.
