我们报告一位20岁女性病患，因高血压及双侧肾上腺嗜铬细胞瘤而同时接受腹腔镜手术。据我们所知，目前的情况下，是第一次观察到的双边嗜铬细胞瘤发生在Beckwith-Wiedemann综合征。它为这种情况下的遗传异常提供了进一步的支持。我们的病例也显示了腹腔镜手术治疗肾上腺嗜铬细胞瘤的价值，即使是双侧肿瘤。
We report the case of a 20-year-old female patient with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome presenting with high blood pressure and bilateral adrenal pheochromocytoma successfully removed with laparoscopy in the same time. To our knowledge, the present case is the first observation of a bilateral pheochromocytoma occurring in the Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome. It provides further support for a genetic anomaly in this condition. Our case also indicates the interest of laparoscopy for the surgical treatment of adrenal pheochromocytoma, even in bilateral tumors.
