ABSTRACT
Multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) syndromes are rare autosomal dominant diseases that are associated with a mixture of both endocrine and non-endocrine tumors. Traditionally, there are 2 types of MEN that have unique clinical associations MEN 1 (parathyroid hyperplasia, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, and pituitary tumors) and MEN 2 (medullary thyroid carcinoma and pheochromocytoma), which is further classified into MEN 2A (adds parathyroid adenomas) and 2B (adds ganglioneuromas and marfanoid habitus). Many of the endocrine tumors are resected surgically, and the pre, intra, and postoperative management strategies used must take into account the high recurrence rates asscioated with MEN tumors.
