Cardiac pheochromocytomas are rare tumors. This study presents two new cases diagnosed via coronary angiography and surgically treated, adding to the thirty previously reported worldwide.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Oncology
  • Surgical Pathology

Background:

  • Cardiac pheochromocytomas are exceedingly rare neuroendocrine tumors originating from chromaffin cells.
  • Only thirty cases have been documented in medical literature to date.
  • Diagnosis and management remain challenging due to their rarity and location.

Observation:

  • Two additional cases of cardiac pheochromocytoma are presented.
  • Diagnosis was confirmed using coronary angiography.
  • Both patients underwent successful surgical resection under cardiopulmonary bypass.

Findings:

  • The successful surgical resection of two cardiac pheochromocytomas using cardiopulmonary bypass is detailed.
  • This brings the total reported cases to thirty-two.

  • Coronary angiography proved effective for diagnosis in these instances.

    • Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of considering rare diagnoses like cardiac pheochromocytoma in specific clinical scenarios.
    • Demonstrates the feasibility and success of surgical intervention for these tumors.
    • Contributes to the limited body of knowledge, aiding future diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
