American Association of Clinical Endocrinology Consensus Statement on Management of Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1
Abstract
Objective: This document presents the findings of the American Association of Clinical Endocrinology (AACE) on the diagnosis, management, and surveillance of patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) and associated tumors. The task force included a diverse group of experts in endocrinology, oncology, genetics, surgery, and patient representation. A comprehensive literature review was conducted to address key issues related to the evaluation, surveillance, and treatment of MEN1-related tumors.
Methods: The task force, comprised of 9 members with expertise in endocrinology, surgery, medical oncology, genetics, and patient advocacy, collaborated to develop guidance for the evaluation, surveillance, and management of MEN1-associated tumors. Consensus was defined as ≤1 dissenting vote and significant majority as ≥75%. Relevant studies were identified through a literature review process, and consensus statements were based on the available evidence.
Results: The task force deliberated on the surveillance, evaluation, and management of MEN1-related tumors including parathyroid, pituitary, and gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors and other tumors of relevance. The document also addresses the indications for MEN1 genetic testing.
Conclusions: This consensus statement aims to offer evidence-informed guidance for health care providers involved in the care of patients with MEN1 and associated tumors. It provides guidance on diagnostic tools, genetic testing…
