[Tumor of the adrenal gland associating pheochromocytoma and ganglioneuroma (author's transl)].
An adrenal gland tumor associating of both a pheochromocytoma and a ganglioneuroma was discovered upon its fissuration in a 58-year-old male having a family history of neurofibromatosis. The patient's clinical course was fatal due to complications of necrotizing enteritis which was discovered at laparotomy. The association of pheochromocytoma, ganglioneuroma, and "café au lait" spots in the same patient illustrates the polymorphism of neural crest dysgenetic pathology.
