Abstrakt: |
A right adrenal phaeochromocytoma is described in a 64-year-old man. Metastases to bone and subsequent death following cord compression occurred within 2 years of diagnosis. Twenty-seven cases in the English literature have been reviewed since 1968. In three of these, the pathological proof was unsatisfactory for the diagnosis of malignancy, and one further case was inadequately documented. The variation in incidence of malignancy found in large retrospective series may relate to inconsistency in pathological criteria, as well as to selective reporting of cases. |
