Abstract:
Adrenal composite pheochromocytoma is rare in clinically. It is difficult to differentiate it from adrenal cortical disease in clinical practice. If a pheochromocytoma patient had a severely deformed spine, the conventional surgical approach and incision will be difficult to achieve full exposure of the surgical field of view. A patient with left adrenal composite pheochromocytoma and severely malformed spine was reported. In order to fully expose the left adrenal gland and it′s surrounding organs, the thoracoabdominal combined incision was selected. The central adrenal vein and peritumor trophoblast vessels were controlled before tumor resection. The patient were followed up for 8 months after operation, and the general condition was good, without local recurrence or metastasis.
