LBODP065 Rare Cause Of Bone Pain In MEN Syndrome

Abstract

Abstract Introduction: MEN 1 syndrome is a rare disease in children and young adults, with prevalence reported as 2 per 100,000. MEN 1 caused by mutations in the MEN1 tumor suppressor gene, characterized by 2 or more MEN1 tumors: parathyroid, anterior pituitary, pancreatic islet tumors. To the best of our knowledge, osteomyelitis of the pelvis has not been reported as a complication in the literature in patients who were diagnosed with MEN1Case21 yo male from Honduras with PMHx of remote asthma presented with a common complaint of abdomen pain but found to have a rare diagnosis. He had 2 days of lower abdomen pain associated with non-bilious non bloody vomiting. Initial were significant for calcium 12.9, phosphorus 1.5 magnesium 1.8 and PTH 360. 4 mm renal stone 4 mm was detected on CT abdomen/pelvis. The initial EKG demonstrated J point elevation due to the hypercalcemia. He was admitted to the PICU for continuous telemetry monitoring due to the abnormal EKG related to electrolyte abnormalities. Hypercalcemia treatment was initiated with aggressive hydration, calcitonin administration as well as zoledronic acid administration. The patient's calcium levels improved as well as EKG. The parathyroid scan was positive for a right-sided parathyroid adenoma. He underwent right Inferior Parathyroidectomy, Intraoperative Nerve Monitoring, Cryopreservation of Parathyroid Tissue. As part of his diagnostic work-up for hyperparathyroidism, he was screened for MEN. His pituitary function was abnormal: ACTH and cortisol levels were high, his testosterone and gonadotropins were inappropriately low as well as TSH and T4. A microadenoma was present on brain MRI. No Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasia was found. The diagnosis of MEN 1 was made. Despite the improvements in his endocrinopathies, he continued to have lower abdomen pain associated with intermittent fevers. He was seen by urology and orthopedics. Initially MRI demonstrated bone erosion thought to be secondary to hypercalcemia but repeat MRI imaging of the pelvis was suspicious for phlegmon vs. developing abscess secondary to osteitis pubis. His blood cultures were positive for MSSA. He was started on antibiotics with continued clinical improvementThis patient presented with one of the most common complaints in the ED, abdomen pain and was found to have two rare and potentially fatal diagnosis which was identified and treated with a good clinical outcome Discussion: This case highlights a rare disease in the setting of osteomyelitis which could easily be missed as a manifestation of bone pain from hypercalcemia. The patient did experience fevers and malaise that was initially attributed to zoledronic acid administration. When his pain did not resolve MRI found osteomyelitis, allowing early antibiotic administration and prevention of sepsis. Presentation: No date and time listed
