Genetic aspects of multiple endocrine neoplasia
Abstract
There are three well-delineated multiple endocrine neoplasia syndromes, all of which are inherited as autosomal dominant traits. Available evidence suggests that still more such entities exist. Despite intensive study, the nature of the genetic defect that results in these syndromes remains obscure.
