Article Synopsis
- Genetic testing is now standard for cancer diagnoses, but it's rare to find patients with multiple simultaneous genetic disorders, prompting the need for targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) and comprehensive evaluations.
- Two sisters with neck tumors were diagnosed with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2A) and familial paraganglioma syndrome type 1 (FPGL1) after surgery and genetic testing showed specific mutations in the RET and SDHD genes.
- This case highlights the unusual occurrence of multiple hereditary syndromes occurring in related individuals and stresses the importance of thorough genetic assessment in such scenarios.
Introduction And Objective: Spontaneous abortion constitutes one of the most frequent complication of human pregnancy. Despite intensive research efforts undertaken to date, the etiopathogenesis of early pregnancy loss has not been fully elucidated. The objective of this study was to analyze the role of selected non-somatic risk factors for early pregnancy loss in patients with various clinical manifestations of spontaneous abortion.

Withdrawal of the drug led to normalization of renal function within 31 days without further specific therapy. Thus, clinicians should be aware of this rare but severe entity.

We describe a 53 years old woman with distal renal tubular acidosis and hypercalciuria who demonstrated severe hypocalcemia, normalized after calcium and vitamin D supplementation and treatment with thiazide.
