Das familiäre Nebenschilddrüsenkarzinom

Abstract: In contrast to primary hyperparathyroidism, parathyroid carcinoma is a rare disease. In patients with hyperparathyroidism jaw tumor (HPT-JT) syndrome, caused by germline mutations in HRPT2, the development of parathyroid carcinoma is estimated to be 10-15%. This review summarizes the clinical and molecular genetic data of about 100 patients in the literature and three of our own cases. Unfortunately, osteofibromas, which might enable timely diagnosis of HPT-JT syndrome, occur in only about 30% of patients; abo… Show more

“…In HPT-JT patients with HPT, long periods of postsurgical normocalcaemia could be documented; therefore, selective parathyroidectomy may be an effective strategy, but long-term follow-up is necessary (19). In our patients, predominantly single parathyroid adenomas were detected at the primary operation.…”

“…At variance, other authors have suggested extensive parathyroidectomy in order to prevent the risk of recurrences and parathyroid carcinoma [16,36,37]. Parathyroid malignancies may occur more frequently in HPT-JT; a rate of 24.3% has been reported by recent literature (Table 2) [2][3][4]6,9,10,[16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34], although it may be overestimated since most papers focused prevalently on parathyroid carcinoma. In our experience, parathyroid carcinoma and/or atypical adenoma occurred only in two patients; in these cases, affected glands were significantly larger than typical adenomas, confirming that size might be useful to suspect malignancy preoperatively also in these setting.…”

“…HPT-JT has been classically described as a more aggressive disease with frequent multiglandular involvement (45-75%), increased risk of persistence and recurrences (20-50%), and parathyroid carcinoma (10-40%) compared with sporadic HPT [4,22,36,37], suggesting extensive parathyroidectomy, but these data derive from mixed populations of patients possibly, including misdiagnosed cases of MEN, as the majority of these studies were conducted before the identification of the HRPT2 gene. Following the identification of HRPT2 mutations, an increasing number of cases of single-gland involvement, a lower recurrence rate, a lower risk of parathyroid carcinoma, and long-term cure after limited parathyroidectomy have been reported [38,39]; however, the optimal treatment remains controversial.…”

“…Weniger als 1% aller Patienten mit einem primären Hyperparathyreoidismus haben ein Nebenschilddrüsen-karzinom, familiäre Nebenschilddrüsen-karzinome machen wahrscheinlich weniger als 5% aller Nebenschilddrüsenkarzi-nome aus [11].…”
