Newly diagnosed pheochromocytoma in female patient with previously determined essential hypertension – case report
Arterial hypertension represents major public health issue. Vast majority of patients have primary or essential hypertension which demands lifelong treatment combining change of lifestyle and antihypertensive medications. Small number of patients have secondary or symtopmatic HA caused by endocrinological or nephrological deseases . Pheochromocytoma is a tumor consisted of chromaffin cells of neuroectodermal origin secreting cathecholamines and is localized in the adrenal gland core or some other area of sympathic nerve system (paraganglioma) 1. This type of tumor produces an excess of catecholamines , excessive secretion of catecholamines can lead to persistent high blood pressure or wild fluctuations in blood pressure, depending on whether the catecholamines are released continuously or in shorter bursts 2. In this case report we have presented female patient, with previously known essential arterial hypertension, who was diagnoised for pheochromocytoma during hospitalization in our facility regarding clinical features and diagnostic procedures.
