Deskripsi
Carney-Stratakis Syndrome is defined as the combination of a paraganglioma and a gastrointestinal stromal tumor. This is recognized as unique from the more commonly known Carney Triad, which in addition to the above also has a pulmonary chondroma present. We present a case of Carney-Stratakis Syndrome which highlights the value of multimodality imaging in arriving at the diagnosis, as well as the role of genetic testing for definitively differentiating it from the more commonly recognized Carney Triad.
