    (2019) VILELA, Leticia A. P.; RASSI-CRUZ, Marcela; GUIMARAES, Augusto G.; MOISES, Caio C. S.; FREITAS, Thais C.; ALENCAR, Natalia P.; PETENUCI, Janaina; GOLDBAUM, Tatiana S.; MACIEL, Ana Alice W.; PEREIRA, Maria Adelaide A.; V, Giovanio Silva; PIO-ABREU, Andrea; ZERBINI, Maria Claudia N.; CAVALCANTE, Aline C.

Fragoso; BORTOLOTTO, Luiz A.; DRAGER, Luciano F.; ALMEIDA, Madson Q.
    Context: Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the most common cause of endocrine hypertension (HT). HT remission (defined as blood pressure <140/90 mm Hg without antihypertensive drugs) has been reported in approximately 50% of patients with unilateral PA after adrenalectomy. HT duration and severity are predictors of blood pressure response, but the prognostic role of somatic KCNJ5 mutations is unclear. Objective: To determine clinical and molecular features associated with HT remission after adrenalectomy in patients with unilateral PA. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 100 patients with PA (60 women; median age at diagnosis 48 years with a median follow-up of 26 months). Anatomopathological analysis revealed 90 aldosterone-producing adenomas, 1 carcinoma, and 9 unilateral adrenal hyperplasias. All patients had biochemical cure after unilateral adrenalectomy. KCNJ5 gene was sequenced in 76 cases. Results: KCNJ5 mutations were identified in 33 of 76 (43.4%) tumors: p.Gly151Arg (n = 17), p.Leu168Arg (n = 15), and p.GIu145GIn (n = 1). HT remission was reported in 37 of 100 (37%) patients. Among patients with HT remission, 73% were women (P = 0.04), 48.6% used more than three antihypertensive medications (P= 0.0001), and 64.9% had HT duration <10 years (P= 0.0015) compared with those without HT remission. Somatic KCNJ5 mutations were associated with female sex (P = 0.004), larger nodules (P = 0.001), and HT remission (P = 0.0001). In multivariate analysis, only a somatic KCNJ5 mutation was an independent predictor of HT remission after adrenalectomy (P = 0.004). Conclusion: The presence of a KCNJ5 somatic mutation is an independent predictor of HT remission after unilateral adrenalectomy in patients with unilateral PA.

    Genetic and clinical aspects of paediatric pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas
    (2021) PETENUCI, Janaina; GUIMARAES, Augusto G.; FAGUNDES, Gustavo F. C.; BENEDETTI, Anna Flavia F.; AFONSO, Ana Caroline F.; PEREIRA, Maria Adelaide A.; ZERBINI, Maria Claudia N.; SIQUEIRA, Sheila; YAMAUCHI, Fernando; SOARES, Silvia C.; SROUGI, Victor; TANNO, Fabio Y.; CHAMBO, Jose L.; I, Roberto Lopes; DENES, Francisco T.; HOFF, Ana O.; LATRONICO, Ana Claudia; MENDONCA, Berenice B.; V, Maria Candida B. Fragoso; ALMEIDA, Madson Q.
    Objective Few and conflicting reports have characterized the genetics of paediatric pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs). This study aimed to investigate the clinical and genetic features of Brazilian children with PPGL. Patients and Methods This study included 25 children (52% girls) with PPGL. The median age at diagnosis was 15 years (4-19). The median time of follow-up was 145 months. The genetic investigation was performed by Sanger DNA sequencing, multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification and/or target next-generation sequencing panel. Results Of the 25 children with PPGL, 11 (44%), 4 (16%), 2 (8%), 1 (4%) and 7 (28%) had germline VHL pathogenic variants, SDHB, SDHD, RET and negative genetic investigation, respectively. Children with germline VHL missense pathogenic variants were younger than those with SDHB or SDHD genetic defects [median (range), 12 (4-16) vs. 15.5 (14-19) years; P = .027]. Moreover, 10 of 11 cases with VHL pathogenic variants had bilateral pheochromocytoma (six asynchronous and four synchronous). All children with germline SDHB pathogenic variants presented with abdominal paraganglioma (one of them malignant). The two cases with SDHD pathogenic variants presented with head and neck paraganglioma. Among the cases without a genetic diagnosis, 6 and 2 had pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma, respectively. Furthermore, metastatic PPGL was diagnosed in four (16%) of 25 PPGL. Conclusions Most of the paediatric PPGL were hereditary and multifocal. The majority of the affected genes belong to pseudohypoxic cluster 1, with VHL being the most frequently mutated. Therefore, our findings impact surgical management and surveillance of children with PPGL.

    A New Insight into the Surgical Treatment of Primary Macronodular Adrenal Hyperplasia
    (2020) TANNO, Fabio Yoshiaki; SROUGI, Victor; ALMEIDA, Madson Q.; YAMAUCHI, Fernando Ide; COELHO, Fernando Morbeck Almeida; NISHI, Mirian Yumie; ZERBINI, Maria Claudia Nogueira; SOARES, Iracy Silvia Correa; PEREIRA, Maria Adelaide Albergaria; CHARCHAR, Helaine Laiz Silva; LACOMBE, Amanda Meneses Ferreira; BRONDANI, Vania Balderrama; SROUGI, Miguel; NAHAS, Willian Carlos; MENDONCA, Berenice B.; CHAMBO, Jose Luis; FRAGOSO, Maria Candida Barisson Villares
    Purpose: This prospective study presents the results of a new approach in the treatment of primary macronodular adrenal hyperplasia (PMAII), with simultaneous total adrenalectomy of the larger adrenal gland and partial adrenalectomy of the contralateral adrenal gland (adrenal-sparing surgery). Materials and Methods: We performed a prospective study including 17 patients with PMAH treated surgically with adrenal-sparing surgery in a tertiary referral hospital, with a median follow-up of 41 months. Clinical, hormonal, and genetic parameters were evaluated before surgery and during follow-up. All patients had at least 1 radiological examination before and after the procedure. Results: Among the 17 patients, all but 1 patient had complete hypercortisolism control, and 12 recovered normal adrenal function after surgery. Significant improvement in clinical parameters was observed: weight loss (P = .004); reduction of both systolic (P = .001) and diastolic (P = .001) blood pressure; and reduction in the number of antihypertensive drugs (P < .001). Intra-, peri-, and postoperative complications were not observed. Conclusion: Adrenal-sparing surgery is a safe and feasible procedure to treat patients with PMAH, providing a substantial chance of hypercortisolism control without the disadvantages of lifetime corticosteroid replacement.

    New Insights Into Pheochromocytoma Surveillance of Young Patients With VHL Missense Mutations
    (2019) FAGUNDES, Gustavo F. C.; PETENUCI, Janaina; JR, Delmar M. Lourenco; TRARBACH, Ericka B.; PEREIRA, Maria Adelaide A.; D'EUR, Joya Emilie Correa; HOFF, Ana O.; LERARIO, Antonio M.; ZERBINI, Maria Claudia N.; SIQUEIRA, Sheila; YAMAUCHI, Fernando; SROUGI, Victor; TANNO, Fabio Y.; CHAMBO, Jose Luis; LATRONICO, Ana Claudia; MENDONCA, Berenice B.; V, Maria Candida B.

    Context: Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is an autosomal dominant syndrome caused by germline mutations in the VHL gene. Guidelines recommend pheochromocytoma (PHEO) biochemical screening should start at age 5 years. Objective: Genotype-phenotype correlations in VHL, focusing on PHEO penetrance in children, were studied. Design: We retrospectively evaluated 31 individuals (median age at diagnosis was 26 years) with diagnosed VHL disease. Results: PHEO was diagnosed in six children with VHL. A large PHEO (5 cm) was detected in a 4-yearold boy with p.Gly114Ser mutation. PHEO penetrance was 55% starting at age 4 years. VHL missense mutations were identified in 11 of 22 families (50%), frameshift mutations in four (18.2%), stop codon in three (13.6%), splicing site in two (9.1%), and large gene deletion in two (9.1%). The codon 167 (n = 10) was a hotspot for VHL mutations and was significantly associated with PHEO (90% vs. 38%; P = 0.007). PHEOs and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) were strongly associated with VHL missense mutations compared with other mutations (89.5% vs. 0% and 73.7% vs. 16.7%; P = 0.0001 and 0.002, respectively). In contrast, pancreatic cysts (91.7% vs. 26.3%; P = 0.0001), renal cysts (66.7% vs. 26.3%; P = 0.027), and central nervous system hemangioblastomas (91.7% vs. 47.3%; P = 0.012) were more frequent in VHL with nonmissense mutations. Conclusion: VHL missense mutations were highly associated with PHEO and PNETs. Our data support that in children with VHL harboring missense mutations, biochemical screening for PHEO should be initiated at diagnosis.
