Carney Stratakis Syndrome

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Classification according to ICD-10
D44.8 Involvement of several endocrine glands
ICD-10 online (WHO version 2019)

The Carney-Stratakis syndrome is a very rare congenital disease consisting of a combination of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) and paragangliomas .

Synonyms are: Carney Stratakis Dyad; GIST paraganglioma dyad; Paraganglioma and gastric stroma sarcoma

The name refers to the first author of the first description from 2002 by the American pathologist J. Aiden Carney .

The disease is not to be confused with

distribution

The frequency is given as less than 1 in 1,000,000, inheritance is autosomal dominant .

root cause

The disease is based on mutations in the SDHB gene at locus 1p36.13, in the SDHC gene at 1q23.3 or in the SDHD gene at 11q23.1, which code for subunits of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH). Other genetic changes as the cause have been described.

Clinical manifestations

Clinical criteria are:

  • Manifestation in young adulthood
  • Multifocal gastric stroma sarcomas
  • multicenter paragangliomas

diagnosis

The diagnosis is based on the findings of the clinical examination and medical imaging .

Children with GIST should be screened for an SDH defect using molecular genetic testing.

Differential diagnosis

The most important differential diagnosis is the Carney triad .

therapy

The treatment is directed against the two tumors as described in the respective articles.
