Extra-adrenal phaeochromocytoma: report of three interesting cases.
The clinical, laboratory and operative findings from three cases of extra-adrenal phaeochromocytoma are reviewed. Some of the difficulties encountered in localizing such a neoplasm are highlighted. Data from intraoperative catecholamine monitoring on the three patients are also presented. Adequate alpha and beta blockade produced stable cardiovascular parameters during surgery in all three individuals.
