Abstract Introduction: Thyroid gland is a rare site of clinically detectable tumor metastasis. Case report: A 71-year-old woman was referred to our department for an evaluation of toxic multinodular substernal goiter. She had a history of renal clear cell carcinoma of the left kidney, which had been resected 2 years previously. US confirmed the multinodular goiter. Total thyroidectomy with neuromonitoring was performed on March 2008. -

A Comprehensive Review on MEN2B

Multiple endocrine neoplasia 25:2 T29–T39 Cancer type 2B THEMATIC REVIEW A comprehensive review on MEN2B Frederic Castinetti1, Jeffrey Moley2, Lois Mulligan3 and Steven G Waguespack4 1Department of Endocrinology, Aix Marseille University, CNRS UM 7286, Assistance Publique Hopitaux de Marseille, Marseille, France 2Department of Surgery, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, Missouri, USA 3Division of Cancer Biology and Genetics, Cancer Research Institute, Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada 4Department of Endocrine Neoplasia and Hormonal Disorders, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas, USA Correspondence should be addressed to F Castinetti: [email protected] This paper is part of a thematic review section on 25 Years of RET and MEN2. The guest editors for this section were Lois Mulligan and Frank Weber. Abstract MEN2B is a very rare autosomal dominant hereditary tumor syndrome associated with Key Words medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) in 100% cases, pheochromocytoma in 50% cases and f medullary thyroid cancer multiple extra-endocrine features, many of which can be quite disabling. Only few data f pheochromocytoma are available in the literature. The aim of this review is to try to give further insights into f ganglioneuromas the natural history of the disease and to point out the missing evidence that would help f RET clinicians optimize the management of such patients. MEN2B is mainly characterized by f marfanoid the early occurrence of MTC, which led the American Thyroid Association to recommend preventive thyroidectomy before the age of 1 year. However, as the majority of mutations are de novo, improved knowledge of the nonendocrine signs would help to lower the age of diagnosis and improve long-term outcomes. -
(MEN2) the Risk
What you should know about Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2 (MEN2) MEN2 is a condition caused by mutations in the RET gene. Approximately 25% (1 in 4) individuals with medullary thyroid cancer have a mutation in the RET gene. Individuals with RET mutations may also develop tumors in their parathyroid and adrenal glands (pheochromocytoma). There are three types of MEN2, based on the family history and specific mutation found in the RET gene: • MEN2A is the most common type of MEN2, with medullary thyroid cancer developing in young adulthood. MEN2A is also associated with adrenal and parathyroid tumors. • MEN2B is the most aggressive form of MEN2, with medullary thyroid cancer developing in early childhood. MEN2B is associated with adrenal tumors, but parathyroid tumors are rare. Individuals with MEN2B can also develop benign nodules on their lips and tongue, abnormalities of the gastrointestinal tract, and are usually tall in comparison to their family members. • Familial Medullary Thyroid Cancer (FMTC) is characterized by medullary thyroid cancer (usually in young adulthood) without adrenal or parathyroid tumors. The risk for cancer associated with MEN2 • MEN2A is associated with a ~100% risk for medullary thyroid cancer; 50% risk of adrenal tumors; and 25% risk of parathyroid tumors • MEN2B is associated with a 100% risk for medullary thyroid cancer; 50% risk of adrenal tumors; and rare risk of parathyroid tumors • FMTC is associated with ~ 100% risk for medullary thyroid cancer; and no risk for adrenal or parathyroid tumors Tumors that develop in the adrenal glands in individuals with MEN2 are typically not cancerous, but can produce excessive amounts of hormones called catecholamines, which can cause very high blood pressure. -

Although three main different subtypes have been described, molecular characterization is progressively being included in the diagnostic and therapeutic algorithm of these patients. In fact, thyroid cancer is a landmark in the oncological approach to solid tumors as it harbors key genetic alterations driving tumor progression that have been demonstrated to be potential actionable targets. -

Primary Pancreatic Paraganglioma: a Case Report and Literature Review Shengrong Lin1, Long Peng1, Song Huang2, Yong Li1 and Weidong Xiao1*
Lin et al. World Journal of Surgical Oncology (2016) 14:19 DOI 10.1186/s12957-016-0771-2 CASE REPORT Open Access Primary pancreatic paraganglioma: a case report and literature review Shengrong Lin1, Long Peng1, Song Huang2, Yong Li1 and Weidong Xiao1* Abstract Backgroud: Primary pancreatic paraganglioma is an extremely rare extra-adrenal paraganglioma. Case presentation: We report a case of primary pancreatic paraganglioma undergoing middle segment pancreatectomy in a 42-year-old woman. Histological examination showed that the tumor was composed of well- defined nests of cuboidal cells separated by vascular fibrous septa, forming the classic Zellballen pattern. The chief cells showed positive staining to neuron-specific enolase, chromogranin A, synaptophysin, and the chief cells were surrounded by S-100 protein-positive sustentacular cells. The patient has remained tumor free for 12 months after surgery. A brief discussion about the histopathological features, clinical behavior, and treatment of primary pancreatic paraganglioma, and review of the relevant literature is presented. Conclusions: Primary pancreatic paraganglioma is a rare clinical entity, its diagnosis mainly depends on histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations. Complete surgical resection is the first choice of treatment and close postoperative follow-up is necessnary. Keywords: Pancreas, Paraganglioma, Middle segment pancreatectomy Background function, renal function, and blood glucose were within Paragangliomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) normal ranges. Serum levels of CEA, CA19-9, and that arise from the extra-adrenal chromaffin cells of the CA125 were normal. The level of 24-h urinary norepin- autonomic nervous system, with an average annual inci- ephrine excretion was also normal. Unenhanced com- dence rate of only 2 to 8 per 1 million adults. -
