  Case 331 (HPC:153) : Peritoneum (adrenal) malignant paraganglioma with lymph node metastases.
  Malignant pheochromocytomas/paragangliomas are rare tumors with a poor prognosis. Malignancy is diagnosed by the development of metastases as evidenced by recurrences in sites normally devoid of chromaffin tissue.
  Histopathological, biochemical, molecular and genetic markers offer only information on potential risk of metastatic spread. Large size, (...)
