Abstract

Pheochromocytomas have been described to be associated with renal infarction in a few sporadic cases. The underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms are catecholamine-induced vasospasm and direct compression or invasion of the tumor on renal artery or its branches. However, renal infarction caused by extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma is rarely reported. We describe an unusual case of benign extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma complicated with left renal infarction by severe vasospasm.

摘要

在少数散发病例中，嗜铬细胞瘤被描述为与肾梗死有关。潜在的病理生理机制是儿茶酚胺诱导的血管痉挛以及肿瘤对肾动脉或其分支的直接压迫或侵犯。然而，肾上腺外嗜铬细胞瘤引起的肾梗死鲜有报道。我们描述了一例罕见的良性肾上腺外嗜铬细胞瘤合并左肾梗死的病例，其病因是严重的血管痉挛。
