ABSTRACT
Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) is an autosomal dominant hereditary disorder characterized by the combined occurrence of tumors of the parathyroid gland, exocrine pancreas, and anterior pituitary gland. Calcitonin-secreting pancreatic endocrine tumors are rare, and calcitonin-secreting pancreatic endocrine tumors with MEN1 have not been reported in Korea. A 46-year-old woman was admitted for a right breast cancer operation. Abnormal blood chemistry findings were hypercalcemia and elevated calcitonin. The patient was diagnosed with a calcitonin-secreting pancreatic endocrine tumor, left thyroid papillary carcinoma, right breast invasive ductal carcinoma, a thymic carcinoid tumor, left adrenal adenoma, uterine myoma, and adenomyosis by computed tomography scan, and with pituitary macroadenoma by brain magnetic resonance imaging. We present this case with a review of the literature, because it is the first reported calcitonin-secreting pancreatic endocrine tumor with MEN 1 in Korea.
