Overview

The most potent risk factor for pheochromocytoma is a family history of multiple endocrine neoplasias, Von Hippel-Lindau disease, neurofibromatosis type 1, hereditary paraganglioma syndromes.

Risk Factors

The most potent risk factor in the development of pheochromocytoma is a family history of multiple endocrine neoplasias, Von Hippel-Lindau disease, neurofibromatosis type 1, hereditary paraganglioma syndromes.

Common Risk Factors

Less Common Risk Factors

  • Less common risk factors in the development of pheochromocytoma include harboring the following genes:
    • SDHA
    • SDHAF2
    • TMEM127 (transmembrane protein 127)
    • MAX (myc-associated factor X)
    • FH (fumarate hydratase)
    • PDH1, PDH2 (pyruvate dehydrogenase)
    • HIF1alpha (hypoxia-inducible factor)
    • MDH2 (malate dehydrogenase)
    • KIF1Bß (kinesin family member) genes. [2]
