Abstract
Parathyroid adenocarcinoma is a rare disease characterized by hyperparathyroidism in cats. A one and half year old Scottisch Fold cat was referred for further assessment of respiratory failure. A tumor compressing the trachea and larynx was detected in the neck region. But exitus lethalis occurred in the cat as a result of sudden respiratory arrest. The tumour was diagnosed parathyroid adenocarcinoma as a result of post-mortem and histopathologic examinations performed upon the request of the patient's owner. Masses in the neck region may cause respiratory arrest by pressure on the larynx and trachea. Therefore, clinical examinations should be performed in detail especially in patients with respiratory problems.

Abstract
Paratiroid adenokarsinomu kedilerde nadir görülen ve hiperparatiroidizm ile seyreden bir hastalıktır. Scottisch Fold ırkı 1,5 yaşında bir kedi solunum yetmezliği sebebiyle sevk edildi. Boyun bölgesinde trachea ve larinkse bası yapan bir şişkinlik farkedildi. Ancak ani solunum arresti sonucu kedide exitus letalis şekillendi. Hasta sahibinin istemi üzerine yapılan postmortem muayeneler ve histopatolojik incelemeler sonucu solunum kitleye paratiroid adenokarsinom tanısı konuldu. Boyun bölgesindeki kitleler larinx ve trachea’ya basınç yaparak solunum arresti oluşturabilir. Bu nedenle solunum problemi olan hastalarda klinik muayenelerin detaylı yapılması gerekir.
