The specific RET germline heterozygous variant K666N is rare and described in very few families, and in most cases, patients were diagnosed with a very indolent MTC as the only feature. Our proband is much younger and has PHEO, MTC, and PHPT. The RET K666N germline variant appears to be a low penetrance variant for MEN2.
