    1. The index case is a 17 year old female with persistent episodes of high blood pressure. Biochemical evaluation and imaging led to the detection of bilateral pheochromocytoma. Subsequently, analysis of pheochromocytoma susceptibility genes was performed (RET, VHL, NF1, FH, SDHB, SDHC, SDHD, TMEM127, MAX). Adrenalectomy was complicated by cardiac decompensation in the context of catecholamine-induced cardiomyopathy.

      PatientID: 1 (case)

      KindredID: 1

      Case: F, 17Y0M, Ethnicity Unknown

      DiseaseAssertion: adrenal pheochromocytoma

      FamilyInfo: Her father had bilateral pheochromocytoma at the age of 13 and her grandfather had died of an unknown renal disease at the age of 50. They were both however not tested for any variants. There were no reports of hereditary cutaneous or uterine leiomyomas, renal cell cancer, neuroendocrine tumors or hemangioblastomas of the CNS/retina. Further family evaluation revealed clinical and biochemical evidence of (bilateral) pheochromocytoma in two siblings 19 and age 23. These members also had the VHL mutation, while 2 unaffected family members were negative.

      CaseHPOFreeText: She had persistent episodes of high blood pressure, and was imaging led to the detection of bilateral pheochromocytoma, and underwent an adrenalectomy (which was complicated by cardiac decompensation in the context of catecholamine-induced cardiomyopathy).

      VariantEvidence: The FH variant is reported in 9/116704 alleles in the ExAC database. The VHL variant was no reported, however, an T>A transition at the same nucleotide position has been reported once in 1/121408 alleles (ExAC). Researchers suspect synonymous mutation has effects on transcript splicing (2 nucleotides into exon 2).

      GroupInfo: Two germline familial VHL mutations were associated with this family. They were: c.382C>T and c.381G>T and this data was taken from the National Cancer Institute database. It is unclear how many members belonging to Family ID 4783NCI had both mutations. Table 4 lists all ID and mutations associated with individuals with pheochromocytoma.
