Hyperparathyroidism-jaw-tumor syndrome (HPT-JTS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder. A typical manifestation of HPT-JTS is the association of jaw-ossifying fibroma with primary hyperparathyroidism. Due to its rarity and diversity in its manifestations, it is a challenging diagnosis. A 33-year-old woman was referred due to painful swelling of the right maxilla suggestive of malignancy. The clinical presentations were not conclusive until she underwent F18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (F18-FDG PET/CT). F18-FDG PET/CT proved to be a useful tool to assist the clinicians in visualizing the "bigger picture" and, therefore all manifestation as pieces of "one puzzle."

A Novel Pathogenic Gene Variant in Hyperparathyroidism-jaw Tumor Syndrome.

Hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome (HPT-JT) is a rare hereditary disorder caused by pathogenic gene variants. We report the case of a patient with HPT-JT who carried a novel germline pathogenic variant. A 27-year-old woman presented with thirst, polyuria, fatigue, constipation, and a history of fibro-osseous mandible lesions and endometrial polyps.

Around 10% of cases of primary hyperparathyroidism are thought to be genetic in origin, some of which are part of a syndromic form such as multiple endocrine neoplasia types 1, 2A or 4 or hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome, while the remainder are cases of isolated familial primary hyperparathyroidism. Recognition of these genetic forms is important to ensure appropriate management according to the gene and type of variant involved, but screening for a genetic cause is not justified in all patients presenting primary hyperparathyroidism. The indications for genetic analysis have made it possible to propose a decision tree that takes into account whether the presentation is familial or sporadic, syndromic or isolated, patient age, and histopathological type of parathyroid lesion.

Syndromic primary hyperparathyroidism has several features in common: younger age at diagnosis when compared with sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism, often synchronous or metachronous multi-glandular involvement, higher possibility of recurrence, association with other endocrine or extra-endocrine disorders, and suggestive family background with autosomal dominant inheritance. Hyperparathyroidism in multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 is the most common syndromic hyperparathyroidism. It is often asymptomatic in adolescents and young adults, but may be responsible for recurrent lithiasis and/or bone loss.

Establishing genotype-phenotype correlations in disorders of hereditary endocrine neoplasia is important for clinical screening, genetic counseling, prognostication, surveillance, and surgical strategy, and may also provide clues about disease pathogenesis. Important genotype-phenotype correlations are recognized, for example, in pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma and multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A. The presence of such correlations has been less clear in other familial endocrine disorders associated with primary hyperparathyroidism including multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1), and the hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome (HPT-JT).

Hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome is a rare form of syndromic primary hyperparathyroidism. We describe a young female with a history of common precursor B acute lymphoblastic leukaemia who was diagnosed with overt primary hyperparathyroidism due to a pathogenic CDC73 variant (c.25C > T).
