Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
606864 | OMIM | Paraganglioma and gastric stromal sarcoma (PGGSS) | Gastrointestinal stromal tumors may be sporadic or inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, alone or as a component of a syndrome associated with other tumors, such as in the context of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Patients have both gastrointestinal stromal tumors and paragangliomas. Susceptibility to the tumors was inherited in an apparently autosomal dominant manner, with incomplete penetrance. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
168000 | OMIM | Paragangliomas 1 (PGL1) | A neural crest tumor usually derived from the chromoreceptor tissue of a paraganglion. PGL1 is a rare autosomal dominant disorder which is characterized by the development of mostly benign, highly vascular, slowly growing tumors in the head and neck. In the head and neck region, the carotid body is the largest of all paraganglia and is also the most common site of the tumors. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
619167 | OMIM | Mitochondrial complex II deficiency, nuclear type 3 (MC2DN3) | A form of mitochondrial complex II deficiency, a disorder with heterogeneous clinical manifestations. Some patients have multisystem involvement of the brain, heart, muscle, liver, and kidneys resulting in death in infancy, whereas others have only isolated cardiac or muscle involvement with onset in adulthood and normal cognition. Clinical features include psychomotor regression in infants, poor growth with lack of speech development, severe spastic quadriplegia, dystonia, progressive leukoencephalopathy, muscle weakness, exercise intolerance, cardiomyopathy. Some patients manifest Leigh syndrome or Kearns-Sayre syndrome. MC2DN3 inheritance is autosomal recessive. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
171300 | OMIM | Pheochromocytoma (PCC) | A catecholamine-producing tumor of chromaffin tissue of the adrenal medulla or sympathetic paraganglia. The cardinal symptom, reflecting the increased secretion of epinephrine and norepinephrine, is hypertension, which may be persistent or intermittent. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
