Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B--genetic basis and clinical expression.

Surgical oncology - 1 Nov 2000

Lee N C, Norton J A

Abstract excerpt

Multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) type 2B is a heritable endocrine disorder characterized by medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), pheochromocytoma, multiple mucosal neuromas, and a marfanoid habitus. Intestinal ganglioneuromatosis, corneal nerve thickening and skeletal abnormalities are also often present. The disease is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion and is caused by a single mutation in the RET...
