Title: [Pheochromocytoma and pregnancy. Apropos of a case]. Author: Juimo AG, Doh AS, Gaggni J. Journal: J Radiol; 1987 Oct; 68(10):643-6. PubMed ID: 3430446. Abstract: Pregnancy complicated by pheochromocytoma is rarely reported; fewer than 150 cases in the published literature, while their diagnosis during the antepartum period is even more rare; fewer than 50 documented cases. The risk to the mother and fetus is considerable but early diagnosis and treatment markedly reduce infantile and maternal mortality. A case of pheochromocytoma during pregnancy is reported in which a favorable prognosis was noted for both mother and child.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
