title: Vaginal delivery in a patient with a phaeochromocytoma. A case report.
abstract: In pregnancy complicated by phaeochromocytoma, successful management has usually entailed elective Caesarean section followed by removal of the tumour. We report a successful vaginal delivery, undertaken under extradural blockade, in a patient with proven phaeochromocytoma.
