Abstract:

Human Tumors Secreting Catecholamines: Clinical and Physiopathological Study of the Pheochromocytomas focuses on the characteristics, manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of pheochromocytomas. The manuscript first offers information on cardiovascular manifestations, metabolic and endocrine manifestations, and unusual clinical manifestations and complications. Discussions focus on permanent arterial hypertension, disturbances of glycoregulation, cardiovascular complications, and major circulatory accidents. The book then examines anatomical forms, including intrathoracic, para-aortic, urina.
