Acromegaly is a rare endocrine disorder characterized by the excessive production of growth hormone (GH) in adulthood. Currently, it is understood that certain pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) exhibit a hereditary predisposition. These tumors' genetic patterns fall into two categories: isolated and syndromic tumors.

Primary failure of eruption (PFE) is a rare non-syndromic condition involving total or partial non-eruption of posterior teeth in the absence of mechanical obstruction. This paper presents the case of a healthy girl referred at age 4 for asymmetry of the upper arch. Clinical examination confirmed a slight shift of the upper midline to the left, with no erupted teeth distal to the upper left canine and a left posterior open bite.

A hydatidiform mole (HM) or molar pregnancy is the most common benign form of gestational trophoblastic disease characterized by a proliferation of the trophoblastic epithelium and villous edema. Hydatidiform moles are classified into two forms: complete and partial hydatidiform moles. These two types of HM present morphologic, histopathologic and cytogenetic differences.

Article Synopsis
  • Cancer predisposition syndromes are mainly caused by inherited genetic mutations, often passed down in an autosomal dominant manner, leading to varied cancer risks throughout life and affecting multiple organs, including the thyroid.
  • Understanding the diverse clinical presentations and genetic connections in thyroid cancers related to these syndromes is crucial for proper early treatment of patients and their families.
  • This review compiles the latest information on the genes and proteins associated with thyroid cancer predisposition syndromes and explores the complexities of differences in mutation types and clinical outcomes.
