- MEN1 is an autosomal dominant disease linked to mutations in the MEN1 tumor suppressor gene, which complicates patient care due to uncertain pathogenicity of gene variants.

- This classification enabled tailored medical management and genetic counseling for the patient and allowed for noninvasive prenatal diagnosis of the variant in future offspring.
