SDHA
| Clinical assessment for manifestations of PGL/PCC & GIST | Annually | Beginning at age 6-15 yrs 2 |
Plasma-free fractionated metanephrines or 24-hour urine fractionated metanephrines (optional dopamine or 3-methoxytyramine) for secreting PGL/PCC | Every 2 yrs in childhood; then annually in adults |
Whole-body MRI to assess for PGL, PCC, RCC, & GIST | Every 2-3 yrs |
EGD for those w/unexplained anemia & GI symptoms | As needed |
Note: Surveillance is not recommended in persons w/SDHA pathogenic variant & no personal or family history of PGL/PCC or other SDHA-related tumors (i.e., incidental finding) due to low penetrance (see Table 3) [Hanson et al 2023]. |
SDHB
| Clinical assessment for manifestations of PGL/PCC & GIST | Annually | Beginning at age 6-10 yrs 3 |
Plasma-free fractionated metanephrines or 24-hour urine fractionated metanephrines (optional dopamine or 3-methoxytyramine) for secreting PGL/PCC | Every 2 yrs in childhood; then annually in adults |
Whole-body MRI for PGL, PCC, RCC, & GIST | Every 2-3 yrs |
EGD for those w/unexplained anemia & GI symptoms | As needed |
SDHC
| Clinical surveillance for clinical manifestations of PGL/PCC & GIST | Annually | Beginning at age 6-15 yrs 3 |
Plasma-free fractionated metanephrines or 24-hour urine fractionated metanephrines (optional dopamine or 3-methoxytyramine) for secreting PGL/PCC | Every 2 yrs in childhood; then annually in adults |
Whole-body MRI for PGL, PCC, RCC, & GIST | Every 2-3 yrs |
EGD for those w/unexplained anemia & GI symptoms | As needed |
SDHD 4 | Clinical assessment for manifestations of PGL/PCC & GIST | Annually | Beginning at age 6-15 yrs 3, 6, 7 |
Plasma-free fractionated metanephrines or 24-hour urine fractionated metanephrines (optional dopamine or 3-methoxytyramine) for secreting PGL/PCC | Every 2 yrs in childhood; then annually in adults |
Whole-body MRI for PGL, PCC, RCC, & GIST Note: Some also suggest PET-CT, preferably w/radiolabeled somatostatin analogues. 5, 6
| Every 2-3 yrs |
EGD for those w/unexplained anemia & GI symptoms | As needed |
MAX 4 SDHAF2 4 TMEM127 | Clinical assessment for manifestations of PGL/PCC & GIST | Annually | Beginning at age 6-8 yrs |
Plasma-free fractionated metanephrines or 24-hour urine fractionated metanephrines (optional dopamine or 3-methoxytyramine) for secreting PGL/PCC | Every 2 yrs in childhood; then annually in adults |
Whole-body MRI for PGL, PCC, RCC, & GIST Note: Current guidelines do not provide surveillance recommendations for at-risk persons w/MAX, SDHAF2, or TMEM127 pathogenic variants. 3 Given that persons w/MAX pathogenic variants are primarily at risk for PCC & persons w/SDHAF2 pathogenic variants are primarily at risk for HNPGL, targeted imaging can be considered.
| Every 2-3 yrs |
EGD for those w/unexplained anemia & GI symptoms | As needed |
