| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Introduction: Great progress has been achieved in the fields, especially genetics in pheochromocytomas/ paragangliomas . Major aim of this study is to investigate genetic back ground in Japan.Results: 1) We have carried out genetic testing in 398 cases in Japan. In 340 index cases, we found 130 cases whose genetic mutations are positive and summarized herein : SDHB 54 cases, SDHD 32 cases, VHL 20 cases, RET 8 cases, TMEM 127 7 cases, MAX 6 cases.Consequently, notably high degree (130/340=38.2%) of patients carry genetic mutation, similar to those of previous reports from USA and Europe.
2) Growing evidence suggest that mutation of SDHB is highly associated with abdominal paraganglioma and the following distant metastasis.
In the present study, analysis of blood taken from 57 cases of malignant pheochromocytomas in Japanese subjects led to the identification of 17 SDHB mutations（20/57=35.1％).
