Abstract

A brief history and the result: Mr V.M. who died at age of 63 because of cardiac attack and his wife doesn't mention any symptoms of pheo such as HYPERTENSION, catecholamine release and so on. From the 7 girls, one died at age of 18 because of HYPERTENSION crisis and CVA. The second girl died during bilateral adrenalectomy. Three other girls at age of 13, 20,26 had diagnosis of pheo. Two of them had extension to inferior vena cava. One boy died at age of 12 with CLINICAL SIGNS and symptoms of pheo. The second boy at age of 27 was healthy with no sign and symptom. All of the family was checked for MEN2 and no one had positive finding Discussion: On the basis of history, clinical and para clinical results, it seems that they have familial bilateral autosomal dominant pheo with high peneterance. The 24hrs urine collection for measuring VMA and free catecholamines was recomended for each patient. Two positive results of three tests are highly sensitive and suggestive to pheo diagnosis. We can use MIBG.I131, tolemerase En.s which is only secreted by tumoral cell as a specific tool for evaluation of malignancy. Although pheo is considered as 0.1% of etiology of HYPERTENSION, it is a curable cause. Any young patient with labile HYPERTENSION, anxiety, palpitation, sweating, weight loss must be considered and worked up for pheo.
