Multidisciplinary Management of Pheochromocytoma in Cardiovascular Patients: A Two-Case Report

Multidisciplinary Management of Pheochromocytoma in Cardiovascular Patients: A Two-Case Report

Description

Pheochromocytoma is a tumor of the adrenal medulla that results in overproduction of catecholamines. Adrenalectomy with a preoperative administration of alpha blockers is the standard treatment; however, perioperative management can be challenging for cases with underlying cardiovascular disease. This report presents two unique, complementary cases: one case required a simultaneous coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and adrenalectomy, and the other was complicated by hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). These cases highlight the critical role of multidisciplinary coordination in optimizing outcomes for patients with complex cardiovascular and surgical challenges.
