We report a case of extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma within the organ of Zuckerkandl that presented initially with a left iliofemoral deep venous thrombosis (DVT). At the time of presentation, the DVT was thought to be idiopathic as no underlying cause was detected. Subsequently, because of a series of medical events, the patient was further investigated. This led to a diagnosis of extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma. We discuss the management of patients presenting with DVT, the nature of pheochromocytoma within the organ of Zuckerkandl, and problems relating to its diagnosis.
我们报告一例位于祖克坎德尔器的肾上腺外嗜铬细胞瘤,该患者最初表现为左髂股深静脉血栓形成(DVT)。就诊时,由于未检测到潜在病因,DVT被认为是特发性的。随后,由于一系列医疗事件,对该患者进行了进一步检查。这最终诊断为肾上腺外嗜铬细胞瘤。我们讨论了DVT患者的管理、祖克坎德尔器内嗜铬细胞瘤的性质以及与其诊断相关的问题。
