Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) Multiple endocrine neoplasia type I (MEN1) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by varying combinations of tumors of parathyroids, pancreatic islets, duodenal endocrine cells, and the anterior pituitary, with 94% penetrance by age 50. Less commonly associated tumors ...
Clinical Description OMIM Underwood and Jacobs (1963) identified an affected father, son, and daughter. Hypoglycemia was the presenting manifestation in all 3. In addition to islet cell adenomas, the father had bronchial carcinoma and hyperparathyroidism (145000) from parathyroid adenomas. The son ...
Molecular genetics OMIM Chandrasekharappa et al. (1997) identified several MEN1 candidate genes in a previously identified minimal interval on 11q13. Chandrasekharappa et al. (1997) identified mutations in one of these genes, designated MEN1, in 14 probands from 15 families. Twelve different ...
Diagnosis GeneReviews Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrome occurs with a varying combination of more than 20 endocrine and non-endocrine tumors; consequently, no simple definition can encompass all index cases or affected families....
