Hereditary Paraganglioma and Pheochromocytoma Panel
Use
The Hereditary Paraganglioma and Pheochromocytoma Panel is designed for individuals with clinical or suspected diagnoses of hereditary paraganglioma or pheochromocytoma. This includes individuals with multiple, multifocal, bilateral, early-onset (<45 years) or familial paragangliomas/pheochromocytomas, as well as those with extra-adrenal or metastatic paragangliomas/pheochromocytomas. It also targets individuals with SDHB-deficient paragangliomas/pheochromocytomas by immunohistochemistry and those with personal or family histories consistent with syndromic presentations (e.g., MEN1, MEN2, NF1, VHL, HLRCC).
