Analysis of the clinical characteristics of bone metastases after pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma surgery
PPGLs exhibit a pronounced tropism for bone, metastasizing to the skeletal system with higher frequency than to organs like the liver or lungs. These bone metastases are frequently associated with skeletal complications. SDHB mutation is a risk factor for bone metastases in PPGLs. It is crucial to emphasize genetic detection and postoperative follow-up examinations in patients with PPGLs.
