Differences in Clinical Presentation Between Pheochromocytomas and Paragangliomas
ABSTRACT Objectives Pheochromocytomas and sympathetic paragangliomas (PPGLs) are similar in most aspects. However, they differ in genetic etiology, hormonal secretion, and associated neoplasms. This study aimed to investigate differences in clinical presentation between PPGLs. Design This study employs a retrospective cohort design. Patients The cohort
