We describe the RET G533C mutation in exon 8 of the RET in two unrelated female index patients, with MEN2A phenotype, consisting of pheochromocytoma which was the presenting feature and medullary thyroid carcinoma.
Moreover, we report the first case of pheochromocytoma among the RET p.G533C-carriers in this Brazilian family and explore the RET mutational status in DNA isolated from pheochromocytoma.
