Hyper Parathyroidisim Jaw Tumor Syndrome: A Rare Condition of Incongruous Features
BACKGROUND: Hyperparathyroidism-Jaw Tumor (HPT-JT) syndrome is a rare genetic disorder bearing both a germline and a somatic CDC73 mutation (formerly known as HRPT2), which has been mapped to chromosome 1q25–q31. The association of jaw ossifying fibroma with primary hyperparathyroidisim (PHPT) is ty...

Sumario: | BACKGROUND: Hyperparathyroidism-Jaw Tumor (HPT-JT) syndrome is a rare genetic disorder bearing both a germline and a somatic CDC73 mutation (formerly known as HRPT2), which has been mapped to chromosome 1q25–q31. The association of jaw ossifying fibroma with primary hyperparathyroidisim (PHPT) is typical of HPT-JT. It may also include cystic and neoplastic renal abnormalities and uterine tumors. CASE DETAILS: Here, we report a case of HPT-JT with an initial presentation of declination in reproductive fitness. Extensive literature search and thorough investigation helped us parturitate the underlying syndrome, thereby predictively improving the prognosis. CONCLUSION: The features of HPT-JT are clinically difficult to ascertain because the parathyroid disease, ossifying fibroma in the jaw and other abnormalities, often occurs asynchronously and may be diagnosed and treated separately. |
