Abstract
Extra-adrenal pheochromocytomas (paragangliomas) are rare. We report the case of a 20-year-old female at 15 weeks gestation, who was detected to have a large paraganglioma (6.5 x 5 cm) in the organ of Zuckerkandl during an antenatal visit. After medical termination of the pregnancy, successful laparoscopic excision of the paraganglioma was performed.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques (JLAST) is the leading international peer-reviewed journal for practicing surgeons who want to keep up with the latest thinking and advanced surgical technologies in laparoscopy, endoscopy, NOTES, and robotics. The Journal is ideally suited to surgeons who are early adopters of new technology and techniques. Recognizing that many new technologies and techniques have significant overlap with several surgical specialties, JLAST is the first journal to focus on these topics both in general and pediatric surgery, and includes other surgical subspecialties such as: urology, gynecologic surgery, thoracic surgery, and more.
