摘要
Four cases of pregnancy complicated by pheochromocytoma are presented. The close similarity between pheochromocytoma and other forms of hypertension of pregnancy is discussed and the pitfalls in the differential diagnosis are emphasized. An early differentiation is important to both the maternal and fetal outcome. The current methods of diagnosis are reviewed. The need for a safe, accurate screening test for pheochromocytoma is emphasized. Although pregnancy may obscure the diagnosis of pheochromocytoma, it also appears to unmask the biologic activity of the tumor and makes possible its recognition. © 1969.
