Diagnosis and management of pheochromocytoma

Hospital Practice

Abstract

The diverse manifestations of this tumor reflect variations in the hormones it releases and their patterns of release and in the individual-to-individual differences in catecholamine sensitivities. There is relatively little correlation between circulating levels of the catecholamines and the extent or even existence of hypertension in these patients. An unusual case starts the discussion.
