Abstract

We report a laparoscopic lymph node resection of a patient who had malignant pheochromocytoma and underwent conventional transabdominal adrenalectomy for unilateral left malignant pheochromocytoma, followed by transperitoneal laparoscopic metastatic para-aortic lymph nodes six years later. The postoperative course was uneventful and the patient was cured of the metastasis. We believe that this procedure is minimally invasive, and metastatic extension can be diagnosed laparoscopic as well as ablation can be performed in most instances without recurrence.
