Familial isolated primary hyperparathyroidism due to HRPT2 mutation.
[familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia]
Primary
hyperparathyroidism
is
a
common
endocrine
disorder
that
is
mostly
caused
by
solitary
tumors
within
the
parathyroid
glands
.
Characterized
by
early
debut
and
higher
frequency
of
multiple
parathyroid
masses
,
familial
forms
of
primary
hyperparathyroidism
are
caused
by
the
already
known
mutations
of
:
menin
(
MEN
1
syndrome
)
,
RET
proto-oncogene
(
MEN
2
syndrome
)
,
HRPT
2
-
parafibromin
(
hyperparathyroidism-jaw
tumor
syndrome
)
,
calcium
sensing
receptor
gene
(
familial
hypocalciuric
hypercalcemia
)
.
A
specific
mutation
in
FIHP
has
not
been
identified
in
the
majority
of
affected
families
.
Recent
studies
revealed
menin
,
HRPT
2
and
calcium-sensing
receptor
mutations
in
patients
with
FIHP
.
Whether
FIHP
is
a
variant
or
an
early
stage
of
MEN
1
syndrome
or
hyperparathyroidism-jaw
tumor
syndrome
is
yet
to
be
established
.
We
present
three
siblings
with
familial
isolated
hyperparathyroidism
due
to
solitary
parathyroid
adenoma
and
favorable
evolution
post-parathyroidectomy
.
Genetic
tests
revealed
HRPT
2
mutation
.
