Long delay in diagnosis of a case with MEN1 due to concomitant presence of AIMAH with insulinoma: a case report and literature review.

BACKGROUND: ACTH-independent macronodular hyperplasia (AIMAH) is an uncommon disorder characterized by massive enlargement of both adrenal glands and hypersecretion of cortisol. Concomitant AIMAH and multiple endocrine neoplasia type1 (MEN1) is rare to our knowledge. CASE PRESENTATION: Herein, we describe a 32 year old woman with long history of prolactinoma and secondary ammonhrea presented with not-severe manifestation of hypoglycemia due to concomitant presence of insulinoma with AIMAH leading to 12 years delay of MEN1 diagnosis. Laboratory tests showed severe hypoglycemia associated with hyper insulinemia (non-fasting blood sugar = 43 mg/dl, insulin = 80.6 µIU /ml, C-peptide = 9.3 ng/ml) hyperparathyroidism (calcium = 10.3 mg/dl, phosphor = 3.1 mg/dl, PTH = 280 pg/ml) and chemical evidence of an ACTH-independent hypercortisolism (serum cortisol value of 3.5, after 1 mg dexamethasone suppression test serum ACTH value of 17 pg/ml, and high urinary cortisol level). Abdominal CT scan demonstrated two enhancing well-defined masses 27*20 mm and 37*30 mm in the tail and body of the pancreas, respectively, and a 36*15 mm mass in left adrenal gland (seven Hounsfield units). Dynamic pituitary MRI revealed a partial empty sella. The physical examination of the patient was unremarkable. Distal pancreatectomy and a left adrenalectomy were performed. After the surgery, we observed clinical and biochemical remission of hyper insulinemia and gradual decrease in urinary cortisol. The histological features of the removed left adrenal gland were consistent with AIMAH. Histological examination of the pancreatic lesions revealed well differentiated neuroendocrine tumors. Genetic abnormalities in the MEN1, heterozygote for pathogenic variant chr11; 645,773,330-64577333AGAC, c.249-252delGTCT, p. (11e85Serfs Ter33) in exon 2 were found. It was recommended the patient undergoes parathyroidectomy as soon as possible. CONCLUSION: Given the history and presentation of our case, we recommend that the clinicians consider the possibility of autonomous cortisol production in MEN1 patients who do not show severe symptoms of hypoglycemia in the presence of insulinoma.

[Primary lymph node gastrinoma]. / Gastrinoma primario de ganglio linfático.

Gastrinomas are neuroendocrine tumors usually located in the duodenum and pancreas, in the context of a Multiple Endocrine Neoplasm and forming a Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. The location of this type of lymph node tumor is extremely unusual and its early diagnosis constitutes a real challenge to be able to establish an adequate treatment and manage the complications that these entail. We present the case of a 64-year-old male patient with a lymph node gastrinoma and whose surgical removal resulted in the immediate remission of the patient's symptoms.

Phosphate Metabolism and Pathophysiology in Parathyroid Disorders and Endocrine Tumors.

The advent of new insights into phosphate metabolism must urge the endocrinologist to rethink the pathophysiology of widespread disorders, such as primary hyperparathyroidism, and also of rarer endocrine metabolic bone diseases, such as hypoparathyroidism and tumor-induced hypophosphatemia. These rare diseases of mineral metabolism have been and will be a precious source of new information about phosphate and other minerals in the coming years. The parathyroid glands, the kidneys, and the intestine are the main organs affecting phosphate levels in the blood and urine. Parathyroid disorders, renal tubule defects, or phosphatonin-producing tumors might be unveiled from alterations of such a simple and inexpensive mineral as serum phosphate. This review will present all these disorders from a 'phosphate perspective'.

Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia: Spectrum of Abdominal Manifestations.

OBJECTIVE. Multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) syndromes are autosomal-dominant genetic disorders that predispose two or more organs of the endocrine system to tumor development. Although the diagnosis relies on clinical and serologic findings, imaging provides critical information for surgical management with the ultimate goal of complete tumor resection. CONCLUSION. This article reviews abdominal neoplasms associated with the various subtypes of MEN syndromes, with a focus on clinical presentation and characteristic imaging features.

[Inherited tumor syndromes of gastroenteropancreatic and thoracic neuroendocrine neoplasms]. / Syndromes de prédisposition aux tumeurs neuroendocrines gastro-entéro-pancréatiques et thoraciques.

About 5% of gastroenteropancreatic and thoracic neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) arise in the context of an inherited tumour syndrome. The two most frequent syndromes are: multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1), associated with a large spectrum of endocrine and non endocrine tumours, including duodenopancreatic, thymic and bronchial NENs, and the von Hippel-Lindau syndrome VHL, associated with pancreatic NENs. Two inherited syndromes have a low incidence of NENs: neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), associated with duodenal somatostatinomas, and tuberous sclerosis (TSC), associated with pancreatic NENs. Two rare syndromes have a high incidence of NENs: multiple endocrine neoplasia type 4 (MEN4), with a tumour spectrum similar to that of MEN1, and glucagon cell hyperplasia neoplasia (GCHN), involving only the pancreas. It is likely that other syndromes remain to be characterized, especially in familial small-intestinal NENs. The diagnosis is usually raised because of the suggestive clinical setting: young age at diagnosis, multiple tumours in multiple organs, familial history. Except in VHL and NF1, tumours themselves do not show specific pathological features; they usually are well differentiated and of low histological grade; their prognosis is good, except for MEN1-associated thymic NENs. The most suggestive pathological feature is their combination with various endocrine and/or non endocrine lesions in the adjacent tissue. Pathological examination is important, for a correct diagnosis and for an accurate management of the patients and their families, who must be referred to expert centers.

Atypical ovarian carcinoid tumor with widespread skeletal metastases: a case report of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 in a young woman.

BACKGROUND: Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) is a rare autosomal dominant inherited condition affecting multiple endocrine organs, resulting in significant morbidity and decreased life expectancy. Early tumor identification allows for timely patient management, reduces morbidity, and improves disease outcomes. Patients with MEN1 typically present with primary hyperparathyroidism caused by multiple parathyroid tumors, however, thymic and bronchial carcinoid tumors are also less common manifestations. MEN1-related neuroendocrine tumors often show hematogenous metastasis, with the liver being the most common metastatic site. Skeletal metastases from neuroendocrine tumors are extremely rare. As few as 50 case reports were identified in a recently published literature review on skeletal metastases from carcinoid tumors. To our knowledge, studies related to MEN1 have not been previously conducted. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a case of MEN1-related atypical ovarian carcinoid presenting as the first disease manifestation in a 30-year old woman. After two years, another atypical carcinoid was incidentally diagnosed in the contralateral ovary during a caesarean section. Syndromic MEN1 was not diagnosed clinically despite her young age and bilateral involvement. The patient remained disease-free for two years without further adjuvant treatment prior to clinic presentation with complaints of chest discomfort and body pain. Radiologic and pathologic investigations identified multifocal simultaneous neuroendocrine tumors involving the parathyroid, thymus, pancreas, and adrenal glands, in addition to multiple other metastatic sites. The findings ultimately resulted in the patient being diagnosed with MEN1. CONCLUSIONS: This extremely rare case emphasizes that ovarian carcinoids, especially when bilateral, could be the initial manifestation of MEN1. The significance of this differential diagnosis was highlighted by the subsequent detection of widespread skeletal metastasis resulting from the carcinoid tumors. A low threshold of suspicion, systemic diagnostic work-up, and regular follow-up are of utmost importance to timely diagnosis of MEN1.

Insulinoma: A retrospective study analyzing the differences between benign and malignant tumors.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Insulinoma is a rare pancreatic tumor and, usually, a benign disease but can be a malignant one and, sometimes, a highly aggressive disease. The aim of this study was to determine differences between benign and malignant tumors. METHODS: Retrospective study of 103 patients with insulinoma treated in a tertiary center. It was analyzed demographic, clinical, laboratory, localization and histologic analysis of tumor and follow up data of subjects in order to identify differences between individuals benign and malignant disease. RESULTS: Almost all patients (87%) had a benign tumor and survival rates of 100% following pancreatic tumor surgery. Those with malignant tumors (13%) have a poor prognosis, 77% insulinoma-related deaths over a period of 1-300 months after the diagnosis with a survival rate of 24% in five years. The following factors are associated with an increased risk of malignant disease: duration of symptoms < 24 months, fasting time for the occurrence of hypoglycemia < 8 h, blood plasma insulin concentration ≥ 28 µU/mL and C-peptide ≥ 4.0 ng/mL at the glycemic nadir and tumor size ≥ 2.5 cm. CONCLUSIONS: Our data help to base the literature about these tumors, reinforcing that although insulinoma is usually a single benign and surgically treated neoplasia, the malignant one is difficult to treat. We highlight the data that help predict a malignancy behavior of tumor and suggest a long follow up after diagnosis in these cases.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia-like syndrome in 24 baboons (Papio spp.).

Multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) has not been reported in baboons, but this condition is well described in humans. An internal database was searched for all cases of concurrent endocrine hyperplasia and neoplasia in baboons. Twenty-four baboons (Papio spp.) with concurrent endocrine hyperplasia and neoplasia were identified. Twenty-one baboons had lesions in two endocrine organs, two baboons had lesions in three organs, and one baboon had lesions in four organs. Ten baboons aligned with the MEN1 classification; 14 baboons did not match any current human MEN classification. We report 24 cases of MEN-like syndrome in baboons. MEN1-like lesions accounted for nearly half (41%) of the affected animals. Genetic analysis of baboons with MEN-like syndrome could further elucidate the mechanisms of MEN and support the use of baboons as animal models for human MEN.

MEN1, MEN4, and Carney Complex: Pathology and Molecular Genetics.

Pituitary adenomas are a common feature of a subset of endocrine neoplasia syndromes, which have otherwise highly variable disease manifestations. We provide here a review of the clinical features and human molecular genetics of multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) type 1 and 4 (MEN1 and MEN4, respectively) and Carney complex (CNC). MEN1, MEN4, and CNC are hereditary autosomal dominant syndromes that can present with pituitary adenomas. MEN1 is caused by inactivating mutations in the MEN1 gene, whose product menin is involved in multiple intracellular pathways contributing to transcriptional control and cell proliferation. MEN1 clinical features include primary hyperparathyroidism, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours and prolactinomas as well as other pituitary adenomas. A subset of patients with pituitary adenomas and other MEN1 features have mutations in the CDKN1B gene; their disease has been called MEN4. Inactivating mutations in the type 1α regulatory subunit of protein kinase A (PKA; the PRKAR1A gene), that lead to dysregulation and activation of the PKA pathway, are the main genetic cause of CNC, which is clinically characterised by primary pigmented nodular adrenocortical disease, spotty skin pigmentation (lentigines), cardiac and other myxomas and acromegaly due to somatotropinomas or somatotrope hyperplasia.

A novel mutation in the upstream open reading frame of the CDKN1B gene causes a MEN4 phenotype.

The CDKN1B gene encodes the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27(KIP1), an atypical tumor suppressor playing a key role in cell cycle regulation, cell proliferation, and differentiation. Impaired p27(KIP1) expression and/or localization are often observed in tumor cells, further confirming its central role in regulating the cell cycle. Recently, germline mutations in CDKN1B have been associated with the inherited multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 4, an autosomal dominant syndrome characterized by varying combinations of tumors affecting at least two endocrine organs. In this study we identified a 4-bp deletion in a highly conserved regulatory upstream ORF (uORF) in the 5'UTR of the CDKN1B gene in a patient with a pituitary adenoma and a well-differentiated pancreatic neoplasm. This deletion causes the shift of the uORF termination codon with the consequent lengthening of the uORF-encoded peptide and the drastic shortening of the intercistronic space. Our data on the immunohistochemical analysis of the patient's pancreatic lesion, functional studies based on dual-luciferase assays, site-directed mutagenesis, and on polysome profiling show a negative influence of this deletion on the translation reinitiation at the CDKN1B starting site, with a consequent reduction in p27(KIP1) expression. Our findings demonstrate that, in addition to the previously described mechanisms leading to reduced p27(KIP1) activity, such as degradation via the ubiquitin/proteasome pathway or non-covalent sequestration, p27(KIP1) activity can also be modulated by an uORF and mutations affecting uORF could change p27(KIP1) expression. This study adds the CDKN1B gene to the short list of genes for which mutations that either create, delete, or severely modify their regulatory uORFs have been associated with human diseases.

Basic Characteristics of Adults with Periodic Fever, Aphthous Stomatitis, Pharyngitis, and Adenopathy Syndrome in Comparison with the Typical Pediatric Expression of Disease.

Autoinflammatory diseases are caused by inflammasome dysregulation leading to overproduction of proinflammatory cytokines and a pathological delay in the inflammation switching off. The progress of cellular biology has partially clarified pathogenic mechanisms behind monogenic autoinflammatory diseases, whereas little is known about the polygenic ones. Although the genetic susceptibility of periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis, and adenopathy (PFAPA) syndrome is still obscure, the presence of overlapping symptoms with monogenic periodic fevers, the recurrence in family members, the important role played by dysregulated interleukin- (IL-) 1ß secretion during flares, the overexpression of inflammasome-associated genes during attacks, and, last but not least, the therapeutic efficacy of IL-1ß blockade strongly indicate a potential genetic involvement in its pathogenesis, probably linked with environmental factors. PFAPA syndrome has a typical inception in the pediatric age, but a delayed onset during adulthood has been described as well. Treatments required as well as effectiveness of tonsillectomy remain controversial, even if the disease seems to have a self-limited course mostly in children. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of this complex polygenic/multifactorial autoinflammatory disorder in which the innate immune system undoubtedly plays a basic role.

Malignant paraganglioma in a cougar (Puma concolor).

A 7½-yr-old male cougar (Puma concolor) was presented with a 2-wk history of progressive hindlimb abnormalities. An abdominal mass was palpated on physical examination. Computed tomography of the abdomen showed a mass surrounding the left ureter. A postmortem diagnosis of paraganglioma was established.

Characterization of MENX-associated pituitary tumours.

AIMS: The aim of this study is to evaluate the pathological features, serum hormone levels and ex vivo cultures of pituitary adenomas that occur in rats affected by MENX syndrome. MENX is multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome caused by a germline mutation in the cell cycle inhibitor p27. Characterization of MENX adenomas is a prerequisite to exploit this animal model for molecular and translational studies of pituitary adenomas. METHODS: We investigated MENX pituitary adenomas with immunohistochemistry, double immunofluorescence, electron microscopy, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), measurement of serum hormone levels and ex vivo cultures. RESULTS: Adenomas in MENX rats belong to the gonadotroph lineage. They start from 4 months of age as multiple neoplastic nodules and progress to become large lesions that efface the gland. Adenomas are composed of chromophobic cells predominantly expressing the glycoprotein alpha-subunit (αGSU). They show mitotic activity and high Ki67 labelling. A few neoplastic cells co-express gonadotropins and the transcription factor steroidogenic factor 1, together with growth hormone or prolactin and Pit-1, suggesting that they are not fully committed to one cell lineage. Ex vivo cultures show features similar to the primary tumour. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that p27 function is critical to regulate gonadotroph cells growth. The MENX syndrome represents a unique model to elucidate the physiological and molecular mechanisms mediating the pathogenesis of gonadotroph adenomas.

Clinical spectrum of MEN2A in a large family caused by the infrequent RET mutation Cys609Phe.

Mutations in RET proto-oncogene cause multiple endocrine neoplasia 2A (MEN2A). Mutations in codons 609 and 611 are not frequent. We identified two MEN2A families with the Cys609Phe RET mutation, which turned out to be the same family. This mutation has been described a couple of times with no clinical details. We have characterized the clinical phenotype of this large kindred. A 54-year-old woman, with a medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), and a 33-year-old woman, who was operated on for an adrenal pheochromocytoma, were the index cases. 35 relatives were studied. Sixteen turned out to be carriers and 12 of them have been operated on. This family showed eight patients with C-cell hyperplasia, six patients affected by MTC and two showing pheochromocytoma. A papillary thyroid carcinoma was also found, together with the MTC, in one of the carriers. The phenotype in this large kindred is clearly of MEN2A. In carriers presenting the Cys609Phe mutation, the timing of the presentation of the syndrome is highly unpredictable. Therefore, a strict follow up of MTC must be carried out because of risk, and pheochromocytoma should not be ignored. These results reinforce the scarce data observed on this particular mutation.

Pheochromocytoma in rats with multiple endocrine neoplasia (MENX) shares gene expression patterns with human pheochromocytoma.

Pheochromocytomas are rare neoplasias of neural crest origin arising from chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla and sympathetic ganglia (extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma). Pheochromocytoma that develop in rats homozygous for a loss-of-function mutation in p27Kip1 (MENX syndrome) show a clear progression from hyperplasia to tumor, offering the possibility to gain insight into tumor pathobiology. We compared the gene-expression signatures of both adrenomedullary hyperplasia and pheochromocytoma with normal rat adrenal medulla. Hyperplasia and tumor show very similar transcriptome profiles, indicating early determination of the tumorigenic signature. Overrepresentation of developmentally regulated neural genes was a feature of the rat lesions. Quantitative RT-PCR validated the up-regulation of 11 genes, including some involved in neural development: Cdkn2a, Cdkn2c, Neurod1, Gal, Bmp7, and Phox2a. Overexpression of these genes precedes histological changes in affected adrenal glands. Their presence at early stages of tumorigenesis indicates they are not acquired during progression and may be a result of the lack of functional p27Kip1. Adrenal and extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma development clearly follows diverged molecular pathways in MENX rats. To correlate these findings to human pheochromocytoma, we studied nine genes overexpressed in the rat lesions in 46 sporadic and familial human pheochromocytomas. The expression of GAL, DGKH, BMP7, PHOX2A, L1CAM, TCTE1, EBF3, SOX4, and HASH1 was up-regulated, although with different frequencies. Immunohistochemical staining detected high L1CAM expression selectively in 27 human pheochromocytomas but not in 140 nonchromaffin neuroendocrine tumors. These studies reveal clues to the molecular pathways involved in rat and human pheochromocytoma and identify previously unexplored biomarkers for clinical use.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 4 (MEN4): a thorough update on the latest and least known men syndrome.

PURPOSE: Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 4 (MEN4) is a rare multiglandular endocrine neoplasia syndrome, associated with a wide tumor spectrum but hallmarked by primary hyperparathyroidism, which represents the most common clinical feature, followed by pituitary (functional and non-functional) adenomas, and neuroendocrine tumors. MEN4 clinically overlaps MEN type 1 (MEN1) but differs from it for milder clinical features and an older patient's age at onset. The underlying mutated gene, CDKN1B, encodes the cell cycle regulator p27, implicated in cellular proliferation, motility and apoptosis. Given the paucity of MEN4 cases described in the literature, possible genotype-phenotype correlations have not been thoroughly assessed, and specific clinical recommendations are lacking. The present review provides an extensive overview of molecular genetics and clinical features of MEN4, with the aim of contributing to delineate peculiar strategies for clinical management, screening and follow-up of the last and least known MEN syndrome. METHODS: A literature search was performed through online databases like MEDLINE and Scopus. CONCLUSIONS: MEN4 is much less common that MEN1, tend to present later in life with a more indolent course, although involving the same primary organs as MEN1. As a consequence, MEN4 patients might need specific diagnostic and therapeutic approaches and a different strategy for screening and follow-up. Further studies are needed to assess the real oncological risk of MEN4 carriers, and to establish a standardized screening protocol. Furthermore, a deeper understanding of molecular genetics of MEN4 is needed in order to explore p27 as a novel therapeutic target.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia in a sheep: insulinoma, adrenocortical carcinoma with myxoid differentiation, and thyroid C-cell carcinoma.

An ~10-y-old male sheep had anorexia and progressive weight loss for ~1 mo. The sheep was emaciated, and 20 d later, became recumbent and lethargic, and was hypoglycemic (0.33 mmol/L; RI: 2.6-4.4 mmol/L). The sheep was euthanized because of poor prognosis, and submitted for autopsy. We found no gross lesions in the pancreas; however, histologically, focal proliferations of round-to-polygonal cells were separated by connective tissue into small nests. These proliferating cells, which had abundant eosinophilic-to-amphophilic cytoplasm and hyperchromatic nuclei, were immunopositive for insulin and negative for glucagon and somatostatin; the lesion was diagnosed as an insulinoma. Insulinoma has not been reported previously in sheep, to our knowledge. In addition, autopsy and histologic examination revealed the presence of an adrenocortical carcinoma with myxoid differentiation and a thyroid C-cell carcinoma. Our case indicates that multiple endocrine neoplasms can occur in sheep, as in other animal species.

Medullary thyroid microcarcinoma: a population-level analysis of 310 patients.

BACKGROUND: Medullary thyroid microcarcinomas (microMTCs) are medullary thyroid carcinomas (MTCs) that measure ≤1 cm in size for which there is a paucity of data on incidence, characteristics, and clinical significance. METHODS: Patients who had a diagnosis of microMTC were abstracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (1988-2007). The data were analyzed using chi-square tests, t tests, and log-rank tests; multivariate logistic regression was used to identify factors that were associated independently with lymph node metastases. Tests for diagnostic accuracy, including likelihood ratio tests and post-test probability tests, were computed to evaluate the size-specific likelihood of developing lymph node metastases among patients with microMTC. RESULTS: In total, 310 patients had microMTC; its incidence increased during the study period (P(trend) = .033), and microMTC as a proportion of all MTCs increased by 39%. The mean tumor size was 5.7 mm. Thirty-one percent of tumors were multifocal, and 7.8% had extrathyroid extension. Lymph node metastases occurred in nearly 37% of patients who had any lymph nodes removed (65 of 176 patients). Nearly 20% of patients had regional disease, and 5% had distant metastases. The overall 10-year survival rates for patients with localized, regional, and distant disease stages were 96%, 87%, and 50%, respectively (P < .001). After adjustment, extrathyroid extension (odds ratio [OR], 41.9; P < .001) and tumor size (OR, 1.2; P = .008) retained an independent association with lymph node metastases. MTCs that measured ≤5 mm were associated with a probability of lymph node metastases of approximately 23%, and the probability increased for patients who had tumors >5 mm. CONCLUSIONS: The current results indicated that microMTCs have significant rates of poor prognostic features known to impact the survival of patients with MTC. These microcarcinomas are an important clinical entity that requires comprehensive evaluation and surgical management.

Duodenal adenocarcinoma with neuroendocrine features in a patient with acromegaly and thyroid papillary adenocarcinoma: a unique combination of endocrine neoplasia.

A 67-year-old woman with familial clustering of thyroid papillary adenocarcinoma was diagnosed with acromegaly due to pituitary macroadenoma. She had multiple skin vegetations, but had no parathyroid and pancreas diseases. Before transsphenoidal surgery, she was further diagnosed as having a duodenal tumor and multiple hypervascular liver nodules. Biopsy specimens from the duodenal tumor and liver nodules were diagnosed histologically as moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for chromogranin, synaptophysin and somatostatin receptor 2a, suggestive for neuroendocrine features. After surgery, the patient was not in biochemical remission, and octreotide treatment was initiated. The duodenal cancer was treated with chemotherapy (neoadjuvant cisplatin and S-1). After 24 months, the patient's insulin-like growth factor I level had been normalized, and her liver tumors had not progressed macroscopically. This is a rare case of acromegaly associated with multiple endocrine tumors, not being categorized as conventional multiple endocrine neoplasia. Octreotide treatment might have had beneficial effects on our patient's duodenal adenocarcinoma and liver metastases, both directly via SSTR2a and indirectly via GH suppression, thereby contributing to their slow progression.

Potential variant of multiple endocrine neoplasia in a dog.

This report describes multiple endocrine neoplasia in a dog, which is a rare hereditary disorder characterized by the presence of two or more neoplasms of different endocrine tissues within a patient. A 14 yr old dog was evaluated for polyuria/polydipsia, polyphagia, and abdominal enlargement. Adrenal-dependent hyperadrenocorticism with concomitant left thyroid enlargement and a presumed abdominal metastatic lesion were diagnosed by an adrenocorticotropic hormone stimulation test, ultrasonography, and computed tomography. Trilostane therapy was initiated and resolved the clinical signs for 2 yr at which time the dog presented with left testicular enlargement. The dog was euthanized and was diagnosed with adrenocortical carcinoma, thyroid carcinoma, an abdominal mass compatible with a metastatic lymph node, and bilateral interstitial cell testicular adenomas. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report to describe the concomitant association of these types of endocrine neoplasms in a dog. The concomitant presence of these neoplasms could represent a potential variant of multiple endocrine neoplasia; however, the presence of the interstitial cell testicular adenomas may have only been an incidental finding. If any of these tumors are diagnosed, veterinarians should perform a thorough clinical assessment to evaluate for the presence of additional endocrine neoplasms or hyperplasia.
