摘要：

We present the case of a 34 year-old male, who was diagnosed with a malign pheochromocytoma and who was treated with left laparascopic suprarenalectomy. This is a neoplasia of the chromoffin cells with a prevalence of two cases per million inhabitants, which generally causes the typical symptoms of episodic freeing of catecholamines. We describe the case's form of presentation, which began with successive episodes of intense abdominal pain on the left side. In the abdominal pelvic ultrasound and abdominal CT, a mass of 6.5 cm diameter was objectified, dependent on the left suprarenal gland. High levels of metanefrines and catecholamines were evident in the urine. A total left laparoscopic adrenalectomy was carried out. The pathological anatomy showed malign pheochromocytoma.
