Abstract

We report herein the case of a patient who developed a malignant recurrence of pheochromocytoma 13 years after undergoing complete resection of a histologically benign, unilateral, sporadic tumor. A discussion on the importance of lifelong follow-up for patients undergoing surgery for pheochromocytoma follows this case report.
