Risk and Penetrance of Primary Hyperparathyroidism in Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2A Families with Mutations at Codon 634 of the RET Proto-Oncogene

1998-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Germline mutations of the RET proto-oncogene are responsible for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2, including multiple endocrine type 2A (MEN 2A), type 2B (MEN 2B), and familial medullary thyroid carcinoma. The relationship between specific mutations and syndromic features has been established. In particular, the risk for pheochromocytoma and hyperparathyroidism (HPT) in MEN 2A patients is clearly associated wit...
