Abstract | BACKGROUND: METHODS: We assessed retrospectively the immunohistochemical expression of programmed death-ligand 1 and the presence of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (CD3+ and CD8+) and macrophages (CD68+) in parathyroid carcinomas and in atypical parathyroid neoplasms treated at the M. D. Anderson Cancer Center from 1996 to 2016. Using intratumoral digital image analysis, the programmed death-ligand 1 H score was calculated with a standardized formula for predominant staining. The tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes per square millimeter of intratumoral areas were quantified. RESULTS: CONCLUSION:
