The genetics of paragangliomas
Over the last decade, it has been clearly established that one-third of all paragangliomas are genetically determined. Genetic testing, guided by the family history and clinical findings, must now be proposed to all subjects undergoing surgery for head and neck paraganglioma. When a mutation is identified on one of the susceptibility genes (SDHD, SDHB,

Effectiveness of 18F-FDG PET/CT in finding lung metastasis from a retroperitoneal paraganglioma [PDF]
A 50-year-old woman was diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia on general medical examination. Further, contrast-enhanced abdominal CT and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a large hypervascular mass with internal degeneration and necrosis in the ...

The Impact of Etiology on Time to Vocal Fold Motion Recovery in Unilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis
The time course of vocal fold motion recovery in UVFP reflects the underlying etiologies. This study showed that there was no difference in the time to recovery between UVFP from cardiothoracic versus thyroid/parathyroid surgeries, challenging the long‐held assumption that recovery time is proportional to the distance between injury site and larynx ...

Non-functioning Aortocaval Paraganglioma Masquerading as Celiac Lymphnodal Metastasis
An extra-adrenal paraganglioma is a rare tumour derived from chromaffin cells of sympathetic ganglia. This report documents a rare case of a non-functional aortocaval paraganglioma in a 24-year-old woman with persistent abdominal pain.

Cancer heterogeneity explored through immune cell deconvolution of the tumor microenvironment
Abstract Cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease, characterized by significant variability across multiple dimensions. This diversity has been extensively studied from various perspectives. In this study, we aim to examine cancer heterogeneity through the lens of immune cell composition within the tumor microenvironment.

Robot assisted laparoscopic excision of a paraganglioma: new therapeutic approach
The Paraganglioma is the most common extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma arising from neural crest (1) (It will better to write: The paraganglioma is an extra-adrenal pheocromocytoma arising from the neural crest. 10% of pheocromocytomas are extra-adrenal and

The WHO Classification of Genetic Tumour Syndromes: Considerations for Genetics
The WHO Classification of Tumours underpins the diagnosis of neoplastic conditions. The new WHO classification of genetic tumour syndromes (GTS) provides international standards for their diagnosis. This diagram highlights the chromosomal distribution of the genes involved in the GTS covered in this classification.
