Abstract
We report on a case of an extraadrenal pheochromocytoma simulating an ovarian tumor. Before intervention, the patient exhibited no symptoms suggestive of pheochromocytoma. Nevertheless, during surgery she experienced marked blood pressure fluctuations, and an unsuspected extraadrenal pheochromocytoma was diagnosed. Thus, although rare, when preparing to remove a pelvic mass, the gynecologist should consider the possibility of an extraadrenal pheochromocytoma.Entities:
