Abstract:
The authors show the case of a young drug addict patient with chronic hepatitis affected by pheochromocytoma, owing to his conditions, which was prepared preoperatively with a short term phenoxybenzamine i.v. We had no complications in the perioperative period. Our opinion is that it is possible, when necessary, to administer a short term therapy but this preparation isn't be considered a standard therapeutic program.
