Abstract
Purpose
We described the phenotype of a large 4-generation family with Hyperparathyrodism-Jaw Tumor syndrome (HPT-JT) associated with a rare deletion of exon 3 of the CDC73 gene.
Methods
We collected medical, genetic data on 24 family members descended from a common ancestor carrying a heterozygous deletion of exon 3.
Results
Thirteen carried the deletion, the penetrance was estimated at 50% at 40 years. Seven patients (39 ± 14.5 years) presented with HPT which could start at 13. Median plasmatic calcium and PTH levels were 3.13 ± 0.7 mmol/L and 115 ± 406 pg/ml, respectively. Kidney disease related to hypercalcemia were present in 57.1% of patients. All seven patients underwent surgery to remove a single parathyroid adenoma. One recurrence occurred 7 years post-surgery. No parathyroid carcinoma has been found to date. We found two atypical parathyroid adenomas. We described an additional somatic variant in exon 1 of gene CDC73 in two tumors. Jaw tumors were not necessarily associated with hyperparathyroidism, as shown in one case. Two kidney cysts were also reported. Variable phenotype expressivity was emphasized by clinical presentations in 2 monozygotic twins: acute hypercalcemia, kidney failure and ossifying fibroma in one twin, versus normocalcemic parathyroid adenoma in the other one.
Conclusion
We report a family carrier of a deletion of exon 3 of the CDC73 gene. This is characterized by a high level of hypercalcemia, deleterious kidney effects and atypical parathyroid adenomas without carcinomas. Onset and intensity of HPT remain unpredictable. The additional somatic mutation found in the parathyroid tumor could lead to these phenotypical variations.
