Background: Phaeochromocytomas (PCC) and paragangliomas (PGL) are tumours derived from neural crest cells within the adrenal medulla or extra-adrenal ganglia, respectively. Over 20 known genes are implicated in at least 30% of cases. Experience with these tumours in individual centres is limited due to their rarity.Objective: To describe the demographics, genetics, treatment and progression-free survival (PFS) in ...
