IllnessMultiple endocrine neoplasia, MEN; differential diagnosis

NGS +

[Sanger]

Multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) syndromes are rare hereditary diseases in which several endocrine glands hyperplasise or develop benign or malignant tumours. Tumours and enlarged glands produce disproportionate amounts of hormones. The clinical symptoms vary greatly depending on which glands are affected. MEN1 causes combinations of over 20 different tumour entities, which can manifest from infancy to the senium. In about 95% of MEN1 cases a genetic predisposition can be identified which is inherited autosomal-dominantly. The age-dependent penetrance for all clinical MEN1 symptoms exceeds 50% from the age of 20 and 95% at 40. 90% of MEN2 mutation carriers (also autosomal-dominantly inherited) develop medullary thyroid carcinomas. An inconspicuous genetic finding does not mean that the clinical suspected diagnosis can be excluded with certainty.
