【 摘 要 】

The first reported case of pheochromocytoma is attributed to Frankel in 1886. Pheochromocytoma is a neuroendocrine tumour that usually develops ahead of the chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla. Embryonic rests of chromaffin tissue arising from sympathetic plexus within bladder wall are believed to be the source of these tumors. Extra-adrenal pheochromocytomas usually are located within the abdomen in association with the celiac, superior mesenteric, inferior mesenteric ganglia and Organ of Zuckerkandl (chromaffin body derived from neural crest located at the bifurcation of the aorta or at the origin of the inferior mesenteric artery).
