A genetic predisposition for paragangliomas and adrenal or extra‐adrenal
phaeochromocytomas was recognized years ago. Beside the well‐known syndromes …

Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PCC/PGL) are tumors derived from the adrenal
medulla or extra-adrenal ganglia, respectively. They are rare and often benign tumors that …

Modern imaging modalities lead to frequent detection of adrenal masses, most of them
incidental findings. Although the majority of adrenocortical and adrenomedullary tumors are …

Germline mutations in succinate dehydrogenase subunits B, C and D (SDHB, SDHC and

Pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma are tumors of the sympathetic or parasympathetic
paraganglia. Pheochromocytoma is the tumor of the main sympathetic paraganglia, which is …

Historically, pheochromocytoma has been referred to as the 10% tumor, ie 10% were
believed to be hereditary, 10% were found to be extra-adrenal, and 10% were considered to …

MicroRNAs are involved in the pathogenesis of several tumors, however, there have been
no data on microRNA expression in pheochromocytomas to date. The objective of our study …
