title: Vecuronium and phaeochromocytoma. A report of two cases using different modes of administration.
abstract: Two patients presenting for removal of phaeochromocytoma are described. Vecuronium was used to provide neuromuscular blockade by two different methods of administration: an infusion and a large bolus dose. Both gave satisfactory results and we suggest that vecuronium may be the neuromuscular blocking agent of choice for patients with phaeochromocytoma.
