2006 
A thirty years old male patient presented with elevated liver e n- zymes. Abdominal USG revealed an incidental large mass on the right surrenal gland. Clinical diagnosis of von Recklinghausen's (Neurof i- bromatosis Type 1) disease was made based on 6 or more cafeau lait spots, 2 or more neurofibromas, 2 or more Lisch nodules, and scoli o- sis. Whole body metaiodobenzylguanidine ( 131 I-MIBG) scintigraphy showed increased activity of the right adrenal gland. Urine metanep h- rine, normetanephrine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine levels were elevated. The diagnosis was pheochromositoma accompanying Ne u- rofibromatosis Type 1. Surgery for the right pheochromositoma mass was planned. After preoperative preparation, right adrenalectomy was performed and the patient was healthy on discharge.
