Abstract: BACKGROUND The mechanisms by which pregnancy may unmask pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas are not totally understood. We hypothesized that gestational hormones may participate in the pathophysiology of catecholamine excess during pregnancy. We report a case of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1210/js.2019-sat-317
Abstract: Abstract Background It is estimated that one-third of patients with pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGL) have germline mutations. This patient with bilateral pheochromocytomas was initially diagnosed with MEN2A syndrome, underwent prophylactic total thyroidectomy, only to be… read more here.
