Hereditary hyperparathyroidism has been reported to occur in 5-10 % of cases of primary hyperparathyroidism in the context of multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) types 1, 2A and 4; hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumour (HPT-JT); familial isolated hyperparathyroidism (FIHPT); familial hypocalciuric hypercalcaemia (FHH); neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT) and autosomal dominant moderate hyperparathyroidism (ADMH).
Genetic analysis of the CDC73 gene [for Hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor (HPT-JT)], MEN1 for Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type1, CDKN1B for MEN4, SDHB and SDHD for Paraganglioma/Pheochromocytoma susceptibility, VHL for von Hippel-Lindau Syndrome, BMPR1A and SMAD4 for Juvenile Polyposis Syndrome (JPS) (sequencing and MLPA), karyotype and array CGH (44 K) were all normal.
