The multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) syndromes are three related disorders affecting the thyroid and other hormonal (endocrine) glands of the body. MEN has previously been known as familial endocrine adenomatosis.
There is no medication with the brand name Demsibrozil used to treat multiple endocrine neoplasia. Treatment for multiple endocrine neoplasia typically involves surgery to remove tumors or hormone-blocking medications.

Neuroendocrine cancers can have a hereditary component, particularly in certain syndromes such as multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) types 1 and 2, which increase the risk of developing these tumors. However, most neuroendocrine tumors occur sporadically without a clear genetic link. Genetic testing and family history assessment can help identify individuals at higher risk. It's important to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized risk evaluation.
Polyglandular deficiency syndromes are disorders characterized by the failure of more than one endocrine gland to make hormones in sufficient quantities for the body to function normally
Neurological tumor syndromes are those in which patients are genetically predisposed and, therefore, at an increased risk for developing multiple tumors of the nervous system
Neoplasia is an abnormal growth of cells. Neoplasia can be benign, where it does not invade other organs or tissues, or it can be malignant, where is can invade other organs or tissues. Cancer, is a malignant neoplasia. Therefore Cancer is a form of neoplasia, but neoplasia is not always Cancer.
