Pheochromocytoma, sickle cell disease and pregnancy: a case report
J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med.
2003 Nov.
Abstract
Pheochromocytomas are rare catecholamine-secreting tumors with a 2-4% maternal morbidity rate and a fetal loss rate of 11%. Sickle cell disease is also associated with increased maternal and fetal mortality. We report the first case of a primigravid woman with both conditions and a successful pregnancy outcome.
