    J Clin Endocrinol Metab 94:4367-71. 2009
    ..However, in parasympathetic paragangliomas occurring in VHL disease, biallelic inactivation of the VHL gene has not been demonstrated to date...

    José Gaal
    Department of Pathology, Josephine Nefkens Institute, Room Ae304, Erasmus MC, University Medical Center Rotterdam, P O Box 2040, 3000 CA Rotterdam, The Netherlands
    J Clin Endocrinol Metab 95:1274-8. 2010
    ..Conclusion: IDH mutations are very rare in paragangliomas and pheochromocytomas and do not appear to play an important role in oncogenic HIF activation known to be present in these tumors...
  3. ncbi SDHB immunohistochemistry: a useful tool in the diagnosis of Carney-Stratakis and Carney triad gastrointestinal stromal tumors
    José Gaal
    Department of Pathology, Josephine Nefkens Institute, Erasmus MC, University Medical Center Rotterdam, Rotterdam, The Netherlands
    Mod Pathol 24:147-51. 2011
    ..In case of negative SDHB staining in GISTs, Carney-Stratakis syndrome or Carney triad should be considered and appropriate clinical surveillance should be instituted...
  4. ncbi An immunohistochemical procedure to detect patients with paraganglioma and phaeochromocytoma with germline SDHB, SDHC, or SDHD gene mutations: a retrospective and prospective analysis
    Francien H van Nederveen
    Department of Pathology, Josephine Nefkens Institute, Erasmus MC, University Medical Center, Rotterdam, Netherlands
    Lancet Oncol 10:764-71. 2009
    ..We investigated whether SDHB immunohistochemistry could effectively discriminate between SDH-related and non-SDH-related phaeochromocytomas and paragangliomas in large retrospective and prospective tumour series...
