Bovine pheochromocytoma: case report and review of literature.

A pheochromocytoma had partially replaced the left adrenal gland of a mature, grade Hereford cow and had penetrated the caval wall with resultant production of an intravascular nodule having a diameter of 2 cm. A few small neoplastic emboli were in thin-walled capsular and trabecular blood vessels. Metastasis to other tissues was not demonstrated.
