    Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas are rare tumors that produce catecholamines, leading to significant cardiometabolic complications.

    Patients with a history of resected PPGL show a higher prevalence of hyperglycemic disorders compared to asymptomatic pathogenic variant carriers.

  • 3

    Long-term follow-up of patients with resected PPGL reveals persistently elevated HbA1c levels compared to controls with nonfunctioning adrenal adenomas.

  • 4

    Cardiometabolic risk factors, including glycemic status, remain elevated in patients post-surgery, indicating the need for ongoing monitoring.

    The study highlights the importance of specialized cardiometabolic follow-up for patients with a history of PPGL after tumor resection.
