Patients with germline pathogenic variant (PV) in the SDHB gene (Paraganglioma syndrome type 4, PPGL4) have a high-risk of developing paragangliomas and pheochromocytomas. PPGL4 has increased risk for aggressive and metastatic abdominal-thoracic paragangliomas compared with other paraganglioma syndromes.Aims: To assess possible germline DNA epigenetic alterations in patients harboring the SDHB PV.Materials and Met...
