Abstract excerpt
Cardiac paragangliomas (PGs) are very rare tumors that comprise less than 1% of all cardiac tumors. PGs can occur sporadically, but inherited syndromes may also play a role in the development of PGs. Approximately one-third of PGs are associated with mutations in the succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) complex, specifically SDHB, as part of syndrome-associated PGs or sporadic PGs. SDH mutations have been assessed by...
