PURPOSE: PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome (PHTS) comprises a group of rare genetic conditions caused by germline mutations in PTEN gene and characterized by development of both benign and malignant lesions in many body tissues. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the incidence of thyroid findings in both adult and pediatric PHTS patients.
METHODS: A retrospectively analysis conducted in 19 (13 adult and 6 pediatric) patients with PHTS, all confirmed with genetic testing, observed from 2015 to 2021 at the Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico.
RESULTS: We found a thyroid involvement in 12 adult patients (92%): 11 patients had benign lesions (85%) and the remaining developed a follicular thyroid carcinoma (8.3%). The median age at time of the first available record was 30 years. Among benign lesions, multinodular goiter was the most observed finding (10/11, 91%). Only 1 out of 6 (16%) pediatric patients was diagnosed with a thyroid lesion (unifocal lesion in mild lymphocytic thyroiditis) at the age of 8 years.
CONCLUSIONS: Thyroid disorders affected nearly all adult PHTS patients, but a much lower proportion of pediatric patients. We discuss about the natural history of thyroid involvement, age of PHTS clinical onset, and optimized surveillance.
