Genetic understanding of pheochromocytoma (PHEO) and paraganglioma (PGL) syndromes has recently expanded with the identification of the involvement of the mitochondrial complex II peptides, namely the succinate dehydrogenase subunit B (SDHB), subunit C (SDHC), and subunit D (SDHD). In patients with PHEO and/or PGL genetic testing for germline mutations in SDHD and SDHB has been recommended, in addition to the...
