title: [Familial pheochromocytoma in a daughter (extra-adrenal) and her mother].
abstract: The nineteenth kindred of familial pheochromocytoma in Japan is reported. A 13-year-old girl had an extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma and her 40-year-old mother had a right adrenal pheochromocytoma. This is the first case of an extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma in familial pheochromocytoma. A statistical analysis was performed on the 46 cases in 19 kindreds reported so far in Japan.
