A case of familial carotid body tumors and multiple extra-adrenal pheochromocytomas is reported. The carotid body tumors, resected previously, were bilateral and associated with 4 intra-abdominal extra-adrenal pheochromocytomas. Magnetic resonance imaging was far superior to computerized tomography and 131iodine-metaiodobenzylguanidine in visualizing the intra-abdominal lesions, and may soon become the imaging technique of choice in the evaluation of patients with suspected pheochromocytoma.
报告了1例家族性颈动脉体瘤合并多发肾上腺外嗜铬细胞瘤。先前切除的颈动脉体瘤为双侧性,伴有4例腹腔内肾上腺外嗜铬细胞瘤。在显示腹腔内病变方面,磁共振成像远比计算机断层扫描和131碘间碘苄胍优越,可能很快会成为评估疑似嗜铬细胞瘤患者的首选成像技术。
