    Abstract:
    An-25-year-old primigravida with bilateral phaeochromocytomas was managed from 6 weeks' gestation until 2 years following combined caesarean section and removal of adrenal tumours. Preoperative alpha-blockade was achieved by oral prazosin without deleterious effects. Intraoperative management comprised neuroleptanalgesia, arterial and pulmonary pressures monitoring, adequate heart loading with fluid replacement and sodium nitroprusside. Postoperatively mother and baby remained normotensive.
