Tuberous breast deformity: principles and practice.

The tuberous breast deformity is one of the most challenging congenital breast anomalies. The nomenclature, classification, and treatment of this pathological condition have varied considerably. In this study, 16 patients with 23 tuberous breast deformities are evaluated. The breast deformities are classified according to the three-tier classification system used at the authors' institution. The treatment pattern is evaluated and a flexible algorithm is discussed for the treatment of the tuberous breast deformity.

Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, duodenal carcinoid (gastrinoma), and hyperthyroidism.

A 43 year old man is presented who suffered from the association of a toxic adenoma of the thyroid gland and a Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (ZES) due to a metastasizing duodenal gastrinoma. There were no other signs of a multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome, type I (MEN-I). The patient presented here shows that the association of ZES and thyroid disease may also occur in patients with sporadic ZES.
