Pheochromocytoma

Preferred Label : Pheochromocytoma;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Pheochromocytoma, susceptibility to;

Description : Pheochromocytomas are catecholamine-secreting tumors that usually arise within the adrenal medulla. Approximately 10% arise in extraadrenal sympathetic ganglia, and are referred to as 'paragangliomas.' Approximately 10% are malignant, and approximately 10% are hereditary (Maher and Eng, 2002; Dluhy, 2002). Bolande (1974) introduced the concept and designation of the neurocristopathies, and identified 'simple,' including pheochromocytoma and medullary carcinoma of the thyroid, and 'complex' neurocristopathies and neurocristopathic syndromes, including NF1 and MEN2. Knudson and Strong (1972) applied Knudson's 2-mutation theory to pheochromocytoma (see discussion in 180200) and concluded that it fits. Maher and Eng (2002) reviewed the clinical entities and genes associated with pheochromocytoma.;
