Successful management of unsuspected retroperitoneal paraganglioma via the use of combined epidural and general anesthesia: a case report
2013
Introduction
Similar to pheochromocytomas, paragangliomas can secrete catecholamines, although they are usually non-functional and clinical presentation is non-specific. We present a case of accidental, intra-operatively diagnosed neuroendocrine-active sympathetic paraganglioma, which was suspected and confirmed during elective retroperitoneal tumor removal.
