Pheochromocytoma and Paraganglioma: Diagnosis, Treatment and Follow-up

Abstract

Tumors originating from catecholamine secreting chromaffin cells located in the adrenal medulla are called pheochromocytomas and those located in sympathetic and parasympathetic ganglia are called paragangliomas. These neoplasias are seen in 0.2-0.6% of all hypertensive patients. Among them 10% are malignant, 25% are asymptomatic and 24% are familial. In this review, important points about the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma are discussed in the light of current literature.
