[Disease picture and operative therapy in multiple endocrine adenomatoses (MEA sydrome)].

We have outlined the symptoms, diagnostic procedures and operative treatment of "multiple endocrine adenomatosis" (MEA I, IIa und IIb). The priority of the operative procedure whenever two or more clinical syndromes in a patient with MEA are present and the possibility of multiple tumors has to be considered carefully. When there is a tumor of an endocrine organ, it should always bethought about the MEA-syndrome. We report about 9 patients seen in our hospital.

[Haemorrhagic necrosis of a pituitary adenoma in a case of multiple endocrine neoplasia (author's transl)].

A case of pituitary adenoma in a 55 years old man was revealed by sudden pituitary apoplexy due to haemorragic necrosis of the tumor. Neurological signs were intracranial hypertension, epistaxis and evolutive bilateral ophtalmoplegia. Case history revealed a multiple endocrine neoplasia including a pancreatic insuloma and a parathyroïd adenoma. Biological data were hypercalcemia, hypophosphoremia and elevated serum levels of prolactine and parathormone. The characteristic features of pituitary haemorragic necrosis and multiple endocrine neoplasia are reviewed.

[Malignant tumors of the endocrine system (author's transl)].

The malignant forms of endocrine tumors are a worthwhile target for surgery, particularly since radiotherapy and chemotherapy have shown far less, if any, results. In contrast, the combination of scalpel and anatomical reduction of the hormonal matrix proved to be of high therapeutic values. The well-known saying of Moynihan: "A surgeon is an internist who operates" refers to the necessary prerequisite for such interventions--a well founded pathophysiological knowledge.

Asymptomatic intrathyroidal parathyroid adenoma. Report of a case with a cytologic differential diagnosis including thyroid neoplasms.

BACKGROUND: Intrathyroidal parathyroid neoplasms (IPNs) are uncommon tumors with an indolent clinical course. When asymptomatic, they can be incorrectly diagnosed as thyroid neoplasms on fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB), leading to inappropriate surgical treatment. CASE: A case of unsuspected IPN occurred in which the cytologic picture mimicked that of a thyroid neoplasm. The histologic specimen of the total thyroidectomy showed 2 adjacent intrathyroidal nodules morphologically and immunohistochemically corresponding to a parathyroid adenoma. CONCLUSION: The incidence of IPN remains controversial, especially in asymptomatic patients. On FNAB it is a possible cause of inappropriate surgery for a suspicious thyroid neoplasm (follicular or medullary carcinoma). Immunostaining for parathormone on the cytologic smear is valuable in establishing the correct preoperative diagnosis when the morphologic features are strongly suggestive of IPN.
