Primary tumor sizes ≥5cm [HR 5.1 (1.7, 15.3), p=0.003] and average Ki-67 counts ≥3% of the primary tumor [HR 2.4 (1.1, 5.2), p=0.035] were independent predictors for recurrence of pheochromocytoma, while SDHB mutation [HR 4.6 (1.5, 13.9), p=0.007] was a predictor for paraganglioma recurrence. The gene discussed is SDHB; the disease is paraganglioma.
