Title: Pre-operative management for surgery of pheochromocytoma. Author: Májek M, Kula R, Zvara V, Breza J. Journal: Ann Urol (Paris); 1996; 30(1):20-4. PubMed ID: 8712756. Abstract: The authors analyze 15 patients who underwent pre-operative management prior to the pheochromocytoma removal. The purpose of this analysis is to evaluate the relation between clinical and haemodynamic criteria evaluating the level of alpha-adrenergic blockade. The authors believe that pre-operative management based on clinical criteria does not necessarily ensure adequate alpha-adrenergic blockade. Invasive monitoring of haemodynamic variables is considered an important strategy for the quantification of actual haemodynamics status of patients with pheochromocytoma.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
