His 36-year-old son was completely asymptomatic. As the son was 50% at risk of MEN1, he was willing to undergo genetic testing himself after genetic counseling.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Genetic testing was carried out in 2 independent laboratories. Although laboratory A showed that he carried a pathogenic variant, laboratory B showed that he had the wild-type genotype of MEN1. The discrepancy in these results was due to PCR allelic dropout by single-nucleotide variations of the MEN1 gene in the 5\u2032 region. The surveillance revealed that he had asymptomatic primary hyperparathyroidism and a neuroendocrine tumor of the pancreas.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>PCR-dependent genetic analysis may be susceptible to PCR allelic dropout in an SNV-specific manner.
