Abstract
Pheochromocytoma is a rare tumor, but it can cause severe hemodynamic disturbances during anesthesia, and particularly in patients whose pheochromocytoma was not diagnosed preoperatively. We report here on a case of unilateral pulmonary edema during laparoscopic adrenalectomy, and this edema was due to pheochromocytoma that was not diagnosed preoperatively.
Key Words: pheochromocytoma; unilateral pulmonary edema
