ODP648 MEN1 vs MEN4: when we cannot find a mutation

چکیده
Abstract MEN1 is an autosomal dominant syndrome characterized by involvement of several endocrine and non-endocrine organs. The most common organs that are affected include pituitary, parathyroid, and/or pancreas. In 10-30% patients, no germline mutations in the menin gene identified, presenting a diagnostic challenge. This case raises question possible MEN4 syndrome, which shares similar phenotype to MEN 1 with mutation CDKN1B. Clinical 59 y/o female PMH HTN, obesity, hypothyroidism initially presented our clinic 2018 for evaluation hypercalcemia. She prior was seen 2005 prolactinoma outside endocrinologist but lost follow up. Per history, she had pituitary MRI 1991 work up amenorrhea found have prolactinoma. placed on bromocriptine at time; after repeat prolactin levels were be normal, discontinued 2019 then restarted few months later due uptrending level. During visit us, her hypercalcemia included calcium 11. 0 mg/dL PTH level 93 pg/mL normal albumin, vitamin D, renal function. Patient negative sestamibi scan 10 mm×5 mm×12 mm enhancing nodule along left thyroid gland lateral margin esophagus, suggesting parathyroid adenoma. subsequently underwent successful inferior parathyroidectomy July normalization levels. No other enlarged. Given adenoma, sent genetic testing; evaluated 7 variants all including MEN1, CDKN1B, GNA11, AP2S1, CASR, CDC73, RET. Of note, has family history or any tumors. However, further testing still performed evaluate pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor CT abdomen, gastrin, C peptide, chromogranin-A, glucagon, VIP, 5-HIAA.

MEN1, MEN4, and Carney Complex: Pathology and Molecular Genetics.
Pituitary adenomas are a common feature of a subset of endocrine neoplasia syndromes, which have otherwise highly variable disease manifestations. We provide here a review of the clinical features and human molecular genetics of multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) type 1 and 4 (MEN1 and MEN4, respectively) and Carney complex (CNC). MEN1, MEN4, and CNC are hereditary autosomal dominant syndromes ...
متن کاملMultiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) and type 4 (MEN4)
Multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) is characterized by the occurrence of tumors involving two or more endocrine glands within a single patient. Four major forms of MEN, which are autosomal dominant disorders, are recognized and referred to as: MEN type 1 (MEN1), due to menin mutations; MEN2 (previously MEN2A) due to mutations of a tyrosine kinase receptor encoded by the rearranged during transf...
متن کاملDoes our speech change when we cannot gesture?
Do people speak differently when they cannot use their hands? Previous studies have suggested that speech becomes less fluent and more monotonous when speakers cannot gesture, but the evidence for this claim remains inconclusive. The present study attempts to find support for this claim in a production experiment in which speakers had to give addressees instructions on how to tie a tie; half of...
