Phaeochromocytomas/paragangliomas (PPGL) are rare tumours that can cause cardiovascular complications following the secretion of catecholamines. We present a young female presented with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction as a result of norepinephrine secreting para-aortic paraganglioma and improvement of heart failure sign and symptoms and left ventricular ejection fraction following tumour resection.
嗜铬细胞瘤/副神经节瘤(PPGL)是一种罕见的肿瘤,由于儿茶酚胺的分泌可导致心血管并发症。我们报告了一例年轻女性病例,由于去甲肾上腺素分泌的腹主动脉旁副神经节瘤导致心力衰竭,射血分数降低,肿瘤切除后心力衰竭的体征和症状以及左心室射血分数得到改善。
