Pheochromocytoma is a tumor arising from neuroectodermal chromaffin tissues in the adrenal gland or extra-adrenal paraganglia (paragangliomas). The prevalence of the tumor is 0.1%-0.6% in the hypertensive population, of which 10%-20% are malignant. Pheochromocytoma produces, stores, and secretes catecholamines, as well as leads to hypertensive crisis, arrhythmia, angina, and acute myocardial infarction without coronary artery diseases. We report a case of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) with a final diagnosis of multiple endocrine neoplasia with pheochromocytoma and medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC).
嗜铬细胞瘤是一种起源于肾上腺或肾上腺外副神经节(副神经节瘤)中神经外胚层嗜铬组织的肿瘤。该肿瘤在高血压人群中的患病率为0.1%-0.6%,其中10%-20%为恶性。嗜铬细胞瘤产生、储存和分泌儿茶酚胺,还会引发高血压危象、心律失常、心绞痛以及无冠状动脉疾病的急性心肌梗死。我们报告一例急性冠状动脉综合征(ACS)病例,最终诊断为多发性内分泌腺瘤病合并嗜铬细胞瘤和甲状腺髓样癌(MTC)。
