A contemporary clinical approach to genetic testing for heritable hyperparathyroidism syndromes.

Based on the particular testing criteria met, affected patients should be tested for variants in the genes currently implicated in PHPT (MEN1, CDC73, RET, CDKN1B, GCM2, CASR) and/or FHH (CASR, GNA11, AP2S1). Patients should be provided with pre- and post-test counselling, including consideration of potential implications for family members.
