Nearly40% of patients with PCC/PGL have germline mutations. Genetic screening algorithims arebased on specific clinical features. Phenotype differences from PCC/PGL manifest as differenthormonal profile, anatomical localization and risks of recurrence or metastatic disease.According to molecular biology and genetic-based classification PCC/PGL can be divided inthree Clusters: Cluster 1a (Krebs Cycle), Cluster 1b (Pseudohypoxic) and Cluster 2 (Kinasessignaling).In order to characterize these groups, we retrospectively reviewed the electronic charts ofPCC/PGL patients seen at our hospital from 2007 until 2017. We identified 54 PCC/PPGLdiagnosed patients. Thirteen (13) had positive genetic testing, one had clinical diagnosis of VHLand two of NF 1 (29.6%).Sixteen patients were classified in three clusters: Cluster 1a (3 SDHB and 1 SDHD), Cluster 1b(5 VHL), Cluster 2 (2 MEN 2 A, 2 MEN 2 B, 2 NF1 and 1 MEN1).Cluster 1aN: 4Cluster 1bN: 5Cluster 2N: 7Mean age at diagnosis 44 years old 24 years old 32 years oldMale/Female 3/1 1/4 5/2Clinical Presentation Signs and Symptoms Signs andSymptomsSigns and Symptoms (2),Genetic Predisposition (4),Incidentaloma (1)Biochemical Phenotype Noradrenergicphenotype (3),biochemical silent (1)Noradrenergicphenotype (4)Adrenergic phenotype (4),biochemical silent (3)Localization Bilateral PCC (1), headand neck PGL (1),abdominal PGL (4)Bilateral PCC (4),unilateral PCC (1),abdominal PGL (1)Bilateral PCC (3),unilateral PCC (4)Size tumor range 4-6 cm 4-6 cm 2-4 cmRecurrence/Metastasis 2 metastasis 1 recurrenceNoConclusions:Genetic syndromes associated with PCC / PGL are present in a significant proportion ofpatients. It is essential to carry out the genetic workup and identify particular clinical andbiochemical characteristics, along with different risks of recurrence and metastatic disease
