title: [Problems with anesthesia and intensive therapy in pheochromocytoma. A review of 25 cases].
abstract: A retrospective assessment is made of 25 cases of pheochromocytoma operated between 1970 and 1979. Three of the more complicated cases are discussed in detail. Actual and potential complications are described and a form of monitoring is proposed. The conclusion is expressed that correction of the pathological haemodynamic situation by expansion of the blood volume and the administration of alpha and beta blocking agents is of greater consequence in successful management than the anaesthesiological technique employed.
