Abstract

As it is true for neurofibromatosis, also pheochromocytoma is among rare diseases. Concomitant occurence of these two rare entities is furthermore interesting. In addition although being one of the biggest tumors in the literature, silent character and nonmalignant behavior of the tumor in our patient let us to emphasize this case.With his family history and with his special clinical situation,our 20 year old male patient is a good example for synchronus occurence of related tumors.

Özet

Ailesel nörofibromatozis gibi, feokromositoma da seyrek hastalıklar arasındadır. Bu iki nadir antitenin beraber görülmesi daha da ilginçtir. Ayrıca literatürdeki en büyük tümörlerden biri olmasına rağmen hastamızdaki tümörün sessiz karakteri ve malign olmayan davranışı , vakayı vurgulanmaya değer bulmamıza yol açmıştır.20 yaşındaki erkek hastamız aile öyküsü ve kendine özgü kliniği ile akraba tümörlerin senkronizasyonuna iyi bir örnektir.
