Cardiovascular Complications in Pheochromocytoma and Paraganglioma: Does Phenotype Matter?
CONCLUSIONS: We found a 28% incidence of cardiovascular complications in a consecutive group of patients with pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma. Patients presenting with a noradrenergic phenotype have a higher incidence of atherosclerotic complications, while the adrenergic phenotype is associated with a higher incidence of acute myocardial damage due to takotsubo-like cardiomyopathy.PMID:38152977 | DOI:10.1161/HYPERTENSIONAHA.123.21902 (Source: Atherosclerosis)

A Patient with Partial 17 α-Hydroxylase Deficiency Initially Diagnosed with Asherman Syndrome and Pheochromocytoma
This study present a case of a 49-year-old woman who suffered from resistant hypertension, hypokalemia, hypomenorrhea, and infertility. She was hospitalized 6 years earlier for hypomenorrhea and abdominal pain at the Xiamen Maternity and Child Health Hospital, where she was diagnosed with Asherman syndrome. During hospitalization, a computed tomography examination revealed an adrenal mass. She was referred to Xiamen University Affiliated Zhongshan Hospital for pheochromocytoma and underwent surgical resection of the left adrenal gland. The adrenal cortex adenoma was confirmed by pathological biopsy. Six years later, the pa...

Malignant Pheochromocytoma With Intravascular Extension to the Heart
Conclusion: Although rare, malignant pheochromocytomas may present with upper gastrointestinal bleeding. While metastasis to the liver is a typical manifestation of malignant pheochromocytomas, invasion of the inferior vena cava with infiltration to the right ventricle resulting in tricuspid valve malfunction is a rare finding.PMID:38143552 | PMC:PMC10741814 | DOI:10.31486/toj.23.0049 (Source: Ochsner Journal)
