A spontaneous paraganglioma–pheochromocytoma syndrome
We present a case of a 40-year old woman diagnosed with a four-place spontaneous paraganglioma-pheochromocytoma syndrome, which was treated surgically. The presence of the succinate dehydrogenase complex subunit D (SDHD) mutation that causes the pheochromocytoma was confirmed but no mutations in the family members were found. After the excision of the paragangliomas located in the areas of the ...

Preoperative medical management reduces both preoperative morbidity and mortality. The current review discusses the latest literature on preoperative management.

Takotsubo-syndrome (TTS) is characterized by sudden onset chest-pain and dyspnea, electrocardiographic changes resembling acute coronary syndrome, minimal elevation of cardiac enzyme levels and transient wall-motion abnormalities in the absence of coronary artery obstruction [1]. Although TTS occurs frequently after emotional or physical stress, non-triggered TTS, is reported in 10–66% of the c...
متن کاملSeizure-triggered Takotsubo syndrome rarely causes SUDEP
Since almost 20 y it is known that seizures may trigger Takotsubo syndrome (TTS). Since then it has been repeatedly proposed that TTS could be the cause of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). A review of the so far reported cases of seizure-triggered TTS was carried out to see how often seizure-triggered TTS is fatal. Altogether 59 papers were identified which reported altogether 74 pa...
