The local spread of pheochromocytoma after adrenalectomy with a rupture of the tumor capsule at the time of the surgery

INTRODUCTION: We present a case of a 29-year-old patient treated due to fully symptomatic pheochromocytoma of the right adrenal gland. CASE PRESENTATION: Patient was operated on and an open right-sided adrenalectomy was performed. At the time of the surgery, a rupture of the tumor capsule occurred....

description INTRODUCTION: We present a case of a 29-year-old patient treated due to fully symptomatic pheochromocytoma of the right adrenal gland. CASE PRESENTATION: Patient was operated on and an open right-sided adrenalectomy was performed. At the time of the surgery, a rupture of the tumor capsule occurred. Five years post-operatively, a recurrence of the symptoms of chromaffin-cell tumor was noted. After the exact localization of the multiple recurrences, the patient was reoperated on. CONCLUSION: The case of pheochromocytoma is presented due to the possibility of chromaffin-cell seeding into the peritoneum, with no signs of distal metastases so far.
