When that person’s short-term prognosis is poor, or their health is unstable, urgent storage of a blood sample may be prudent. The goal of storing a blood sample is to allow for the possibility of hereditary cancer genetic testing in a family. [bccancer.bc.ca]

Pathophysiology MEN2B is secondary to a germline mutation in the RET proto-oncogene on chromosome 10q11. The most common mutation (95%) is M918T in exon 16 and second most common mutation (2-3%) is A883F in exon 15 [3]. [webeye.ophth.uiowa.edu]

This gene encodes p27Kip1, a putative tumor suppressor which binds to and inhibits cyclin/cyclin-dependent kinase complexes, thereby preventing cell cycle progression. [push-zb.helmholtz-muenchen.de]

The risk of developing MTC depends on RET mutation and can be prevented with prophylactic thyroidectomy. [cancerbiomed.org]

If a high-risk mutation is found, the thyroid gland should be surgically removed to prevent cancer from developing. Depending on the type of mutation, the timing of surgery could be as early as first months of life to childhood or young adulthood. [cancer.net]

Prophylactic transcervical thymectomy should be performed in all patients (consider the presence of supernumerary parathyroid glands and prevents the development of thymic carcinoid). [shifrinmd.com]
