PG - 4058-4066 LID - 10.1210/jc.2018-02789 [doi] AB - CONTEXT: Familial isolated hyperparathyroidism (FIHP) is defined as familial primary hyperparathyroidism (FH) without a characteristic extraparathyroidal feature of a more complex hyperparathyroid syndrome. New concepts of FIHP have been developed within this definition. FIHP has been difficult to study due to small kindreds and mildly symptomatic cases. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION: Searches were through PubMed for FIHP, other FH syndromes, and the gene(s) mutated in each. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS: Within its definition, the current concept of FIHP has clinical and mutational components that can include incomplete expressions of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia, hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndromes, or their mutations. Newest concepts of FIHP focus on kindreds without mutation of the MEN1, CASR, or CDC73 genes; 17% have germline activating mutation of the gene for the GCM2 transcription factor. The FIHP kindreds with or without GCM2 mutation contain a median of only two cases of primary hyperparathyroidism. The small kindred size in both subgroups of FIHP is probably caused by a low rate of screening among relatives. Persons with FIHP and GCM2 mutation present as adults with mild hypercalcemia and multiple parathyroid tumors. CONCLUSION: The current concept of FIHP led to a focus on small kindreds without mutation of MEN1, CASR, or CDC73. These assisted in identifying germline activating GCM2 mutations in 17% of kindreds. Clinical and mutational characterization in more cases is needed to determine if there are any unique clinical features of FIHP, with or without mutation of GCM2.
