Background: Hyperandrogenism is infrequent in menopause, being the most common cause benign pathologies. However, it can also be produced by an ovarian or adrenal tumour. Correct diagnosis and location can be challenging because small lesions may not be visible with modern imaging studies. We report a case of ovarian stromal hyperplasia where selective venous catheterization and hormonal sampling were performed to find the origin of excessive androgen production.<p class="...

Background: Hyperparathyroidism jaw-tumor syndrome (HPT-JT) is a rare and underdiagnosed cause of familial primary hyperparathyroidism (incidence <1/1000000). It is caused by a pathogenic variant in the CDC73 (or HRPT2) gene that encodes parafibromin. Patients with HPT-JT have a 15–20% risk of developing parathyroid carcinoma. Other related conditions are jaw tumors in 30% of cases, kidney abnormalities in 15% of cases, and uterine tumors in 50% of c...
