Abstract
Pheochromocytomas are catecholamine-producing neuroendocrine tumors arising from chromaffine cells derived from the embryonic neural crest. They occur in 0.1-5.7% of patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (von Recklinghausen's disease). We report the case of an adrenal pheochromocytoma in a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1.
