A lipoadenoma of the parathyroid gland was discovered at autopsy as the result of a search for the cause of terminally detected hyperparathyroidism in an elderly man who had suffered cerebral infarction. It is the only case known to the authors in which this uncommon cause of hyperparathyroidism was found at post-mortem examination after hypercalcemia and raised levels of serum immunoreactive parathormone were documented during life.

In this study of cases known to five Los Angeles agencies, it was found that about half of those affected have more than one defect. Findings demonstrate a need for more sensitive communicable disease surveillance and for the development of services for the multiple handicapped child.
