OBJECTIVE: Image cytometric quantitation of nuclear DNA of paragangliomas may provide prognostic information that cannot be obtained from histopathologic study. Flow cytometry has demonstrated DNA aneuploid tumors to have a higher risk of progression than diploid neoplasms.
STUDY DESIGN: DNA ploidy of 56 paragangliomas was assessed by image cytometry of 5-micron, Feulgen-stained, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections.
RESULTS: Thirty-three (59%) paragangliomas were diploid and 23 (41%) aneuploid. Of the 30 adrenal pheochromocytomas, 15 (50%) were diploid. Thirteen (93%) of the 14 carotid body tumors were diploid. Five of seven (71%) glomus jugulare tumors and two of five (40%) extraadrenal paragangliomas were aneuploid. During a mean follow-up of 57 months (range, 1 month to 36 years) of 44 patients with 47 paragangliomas, 33 (75%) were alive and without disease; 7 (16%), including 1 glomus jugulare, 2 carotid body and 4 pheochromocytoma patients, developed recurrences/metastases. By multivariate analysis, image cytometric DNA ploidy was predictive of disease-free survival for adrenal pheochromocytomas. No significant differences in overall survival, disease-free survival or recurrence/metastasis rate were noted between other diploid and aneuploid tumors.
CONCLUSION: Aneuploidy suggests a risk of early recurrence for adrenal pheochromocytomas.
