Introduction: Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) exhibit an up to 20% malignancy rate. Various clinical, genetic, and pathological features have been proposed as predictors of malignancy. However, until present there are no robust indices to reliably predict metastatic PPGLs.Aim: The aim of the present study was to prospectively validate the value of methoxytyramine as risk marker of metastatic disease and establish a machine learning (ML) mode...
