Abstract
A 40 year old patient suffering from vague pain in the abdomen since 1 month, came with CT scan of abdomen and pelvis showing large lobulated cystic lesion of 11 x 10.6 x 9.7cms suggesting ? Left ovarian neoplasm. On exploratory laparotomy uterus and ovaries were normal and a mass of 10 x 9 cm was seen arising from the pelvis. The Histopathological report stated pheochromocytoma. The extra adrenal pheochromocytomas are rare tumors that originate from the chromaffin tissue of sympathetic nervous system.
