About 80\u201385 % is located in the adrenal medulla, while the remaining 10\u201315 % originates from extra-adrenal chromaffin tissue and is referred to as paragangliomas.<\/p>\n<p>These tumors share clinical characteristics; therefore, the diagnostic approach is similar.<\/p>\n<p>They are an uncommon cause of secondary hypertension, with a prevalence ranging from 0.1\u20131 %. They may be sporadic or associated with genetic disorders such as multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2, von Hippel\u2013Lindau disease, familial paraganglioma, and neurofibromatosis type 1 or von Recklinghausen\u2019s disease, appearing in the latter in 1\u20135 % of patients at a mean age of 42 years, although the range is variable.<br \/>The diagnostic suspicion should be based on clinical findings and confirmed through biochemical testing of plasma and\/or urinary metanephrines, as well as anatomical tumor identification by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging.<\/p>\n<p>The treatment of choice is laparoscopic surgery, following medical preparation with alpha-adrenergic blockade.<br \/>The prognosis is usually good, although around 10 % of pheochromocytomas and 50 % of paragangliomas are malignant, and the 5-year survival rate in these patients is less than 50 %.<br \/>We present the clinical case of a 19-year-old patient with a history of neurofibromatosis type I who was diagnosed with a left-sided pheochromocytoma, for which surgical treatment was indicated.<br \/>In conclusion, this clinical case highlights the importance of suspecting secondary causes of arterial hypertension in young patients, such as pheochromocytoma, a rare tumor with a wide range of nonspecific symptoms, and its association with genetic diseases. It also emphasizes the relevance of individualized management by a multidisciplinary team.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.5&#8243; text_font=\u00bb||||||||\u00bb text_font_size=\u00bb15px\u00bb text_line_height=\u00bb2em\u00bb header_font=\u00bb||||||||\u00bb header_2_font=\u00bb||||||||\u00bb header_3_font=\u00bbEB Garamond||||||||\u00bb header_3_font_size=\u00bb24px\u00bb header_3_line_height=\u00bb1.4em\u00bb header_4_font=\u00bb|700||on|||||\u00bb header_4_text_color=\u00bb#ffdaa4&#8243; header_4_font_size=\u00bb12px\u00bb header_4_letter_spacing=\u00bb2px\u00bb header_4_line_height=\u00bb2em\u00bb min_height=\u00bb72.6px\u00bb text_line_height_tablet=\u00bb\u00bb text_line_height_phone=\u00bb1.6em\u00bb text_line_height_last_edited=\u00bbon|phone\u00bb locked=\u00bboff\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]<\/p>\n<h3>Keywords<\/h3>\n<p>Pheochromocytoma, secondary arterial hypertension, von Recklinghausen\u00b4s disease, neurofibromatosis<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.5&#8243; text_font=\u00bb||||||||\u00bb text_font_size=\u00bb15px\u00bb text_line_height=\u00bb2em\u00bb header_font=\u00bb||||||||\u00bb header_2_font=\u00bb||||||||\u00bb header_3_font=\u00bbEB Garamond||||||||\u00bb header_3_font_size=\u00bb24px\u00bb header_3_line_height=\u00bb1.4em\u00bb header_4_font=\u00bb|700||on|||||\u00bb header_4_text_color=\u00bb#ffdaa4&#8243; header_4_font_size=\u00bb12px\u00bb header_4_letter_spacing=\u00bb2px\u00bb header_4_line_height=\u00bb2em\u00bb text_line_height_tablet=\u00bb\u00bb text_line_height_phone=\u00bb1.6em\u00bb text_line_height_last_edited=\u00bbon|phone\u00bb locked=\u00bboff\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]<\/p>\n<h3>Introducci\u00f3n<\/h3>\n<p>El t\u00e9rmino feocromocitoma (FEO) proviene del griego: \u00abPhios\u00bb significa oscuro, \u00abchromo\u00bb significa color y \u00abcytoma\u00bb, tumor.
