Description : Multinodular goiter (MNG) is a common disorder characterized by nodular enlargement
of the thyroid gland. In MNG1, some individuals may also develop Sertoli-Leydig cell
tumors, usually of the ovary (summary by Rio Frio et al., 2011). - Genetic Heterogeneity
of Multinodular Goiter Other MNG loci map to chromosome Xp22 (MNG2; 300273) and chromosome
3q26 (MNG3; 606082).;
Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the homolog of the Drosophila DICER 1 gene (DICER1, 606241.0007).;
Neoplasia : Papillary thyroid carcinoma (rare); Sertoli-Leydig cell ovarian tumors may occur;
