Postoperative deaths due to unsuspected pheochromocytoma
Southern Medical Journal
|November 1, 1977
Abstract:
Two cases of postoperative death due to unsuspected pheochromocytoma are presented. Both patients exhibited signs and symptoms preoperatively which might have been attributable to a pheochromocytoma. These reports serve as a reminder of the potentially fatal consequences of inadequate evaluation of hypertensive patients before surgery.
