Popis:	This paper reports the results and specific variations in diagnostic and therapy of pheochromocytoma in childhood. Two patients aged 10 and 12 years are described. Previous reports about 155 cases are summarized in respect to localization and frequency of occurrence. In our experience the catheterization of the vena cava is a small-risk method to localize the tumor and to obtain informations about the amount and type of cathecholamines. The value and limits of the diagnostic procedure - until now seldom used in children - are mainly discussed. The improvement of symptoms and the marked circulatory changes by the treatment with the alpha-adrenergic blocking agent Dibencyline are described. The histological differentiation between benign and malign growth proves to be uncertain.
