Genes, Vol. 14, Pages 1782: Clinical Factors Predicting Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1 and Type 4 in Patients with Neuroendocrine Tumors
Conclusion: These preliminary data show that a diagnosis of NET in patients with a negative family history is suggestive of MEN1 in the presence of ≥three positive phenotypic criteria, including early age, multifocality, multiple MEN-associated manifestations, and endocrine syndromes. This indication may allow optimization of the diagnosis of MEN in patients with NET. (Source: Genes)

A Japanese Family Meeting the Clinical Diagnostic Criteria for MEN1 with a MEN1 Variant of Uncertain Significance
Intern Med. 2023 Sep 1. doi: 10.2169/internalmedicine.2300-23. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMultiple gastroenteric, pancreatic, and pituitary neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) were diagnosed in a 74-year-old man with a history of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Germline testing demonstrated a variant of MEN1 (c.1694T>A, p.L565Q), whose pathogenicity was classified as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) according to the ACMG/AMP guidelines. The same germline variant was detected in the patient's son and daughter, who also showed PHPT or hypercalcemia and met the clinical diagnostic criteria for multiple endocrin...
