Circulatory characteristics of early mobilization after surgery for bilateral pheochromocytoma: a case report.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Surgical treatment of pheochromocytomas is associated with circulatory dynamics instability, necessitating systemic management of the patient in the intensive care unit after surgery. Early mobilization after pheochromocytoma surgery is not described in the guidelines, and to our knowledge, no reports have specifically focused on circulatory dynamics during early mobilization after surgery.

Case presentation

A 31-year-old Japanese woman was diagnosed with bilateral pheochromocytoma and underwent a second-stage adrenalectomy for bilateral pheochromocytoma at our hospital. We evaluated circulatory dynamics during a passive upright posture on postoperative days 1 and 4. She was placed on a tilt bed in the supine position (0° head) for 15 min, passive upright posture
