A follow-up study of patients with MEN syndromes - five case reports.

CONCLUSIONS: 1. MEN syndrome is a rare cause of primary hyperparathyroidism. 2. Subtotal parathyroidectomy helps to bring back a normal calcium metabolism. 3. Recurrence of hyperparathyroidism in patients with MEN syndrome requires total parathyroidectomy with an autotransplantation into the anterior forearm muscles. PMID: 29952424 [PubMed - in process]
