No one knew what this strange thing was that Background information on Pheochromocytoma [When available] A pheochromocytoma (also phaeochromocytoma, English spelling) is a tumor in the medulla of the adrenal glands (or, rarely, the ganglia of the sympathetic nervous system) which secretes excessive amounts of catecholamines, usually epinephrine and norepinephrine. The signs and symptoms of a pheochromocytoma are those of sympathetic nervous system hyperactivity: elevated heart rate and blood pressure and anxiety often resembling that of a panic attack. A pheochromocytoma can be deadly because of the severe blood pressure elevation it produces. Search the web for more resources on Pheochromocytoma |
