BACKGROUND Pheochromocytoma(PHEO)is a type of tumor that originates from chromaffin cells in the adrenal medulla and is classified as an adrenal paraganglioma.PHEOs can secrete catecholamines,leading to a variety of s...
Pheochromocytoma (PHEO) is a rare endocrine tumor from the chromaffin cells in the adrenomedullary gland and sympathetic/parasympathetic ganglia, secreting one or more catecholamines. It is frequently associated with ...
Introduction: Pheochromocytoma is a rare cause of secondary arterial hypertension whose clinical presentation can be multifaceted. In particular, it may be revealed or complicated by cardiovascular manifestations inde...
Background:Pheochromocytomas are tumors originating from chromaffin cells and producing catecholamines.In 10%–20%of cases,these tumors act outside of the adrenal medulla,defining conglomerates named paragangliomas.Bl...
Different types of neuroendocrine cancer,including medullary thyroid cancer(MTC)and thyroid C-cell hyperplasia,are part of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2(MEN2).A proto-oncogene mutation of the rearranged during t...
Approximately 40% of pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma(PPGL) cases are familial, typically presenting earlier with more complex symptoms. This paper synthesizes literature and guidelines to inform on clinical charact...
Introduction: Adrenal tumours (AT) are commonly encountered in clinical practice. For any patient presenting an adrenal mass, there are two crucial points to consider: is the adrenal mass malignant and is it hormonall...
BACKGROUND Paraganglioma(PGL)located in the retroperitoneum presents challenges in diagnosis and treatment due to its hidden location,lack of specific symptoms in the early stages,and absence of distinctive manifestat...
