Overview

Surgery is the mainstay of treatment for pheochromocytoma.

Surgery

  • Surgical resection is the treatment of choice for benign localized tumor.
  • Given the complexity of perioperative management, and the potential for catastrophic intra and postoperative complications, such surgery should be performed only at centers experienced in the area.
  • It may also be nescessary to perform a complete surgical resection of the affected adrenal gland(s).

Adrenalictomy:

  • Laparoscopic transabdominal and retroperitoneal approaches have been used successfully for non-metastatic abdominal pheochromocytmas.[1]
  • Complicationa are less in laparoscopic than open surgery. Catecholamine secretion falls to normal level within a week. Major intraoperative complications include: intraoperative tumor capsule rupture, hypertensive crisis, myocardial infarctions, or cerebrovascular haemorrhages. Hyperdynamic instability after tumor resection is poosible. Hypoglycemia can occur after tumour resection due to unopposed insulin effect after decline of catecholamines levels.[2]
  • Severe hypotension can occur after removal of the gland due to decreased catecholamines level in blood and downregulation of adrenergic receptors. It can be controlled by vasopressors induction.[3]

Prognosis

  • Good prognosis pateints include: small tumor size, short duration of surgery, systolic blood pressure less than 160 mmhg, and low levels of urinary catecholamines.[4]
  • Postoperative hypotension can be avoided by adequate fluid replacement.
  • Recurrence is more in patients with familial pheochromocytoma and extraadrenal tumors.[5]
  • Familial pheochromocytoma  have a high incidence of bilateral disease.
  • Partial adrenalectomy is recommended for these patients with bilateral pheochromocytomas to prevent permanent glucocorticoid deficiency.
  • Complete bilateral adrenalectomy is recommended for MEN2 patients. There is highrt rate of reccurence than in sporadic cases. Follow up for long duration after surgery is needed. Most patients should have annual biochemical screening.
