Best Pheochromocytoma Treatment Doctors in Bangalore

Best Pheochromocytoma Doctors in Bangalore

Pheochromocytoma is a rare tumour originating in the middle of the adrenal glands, which are small organs on top of the kidneys. This tumour triggers an overproduction of hormones like adrenaline and noradrenaline, significantly impacting the body’s vital functions. Various factors like genetic predisposition and certain health conditions may enhance one’s susceptibility to pheochromocytoma. The consequential hormone imbalance causes symptoms such as high blood pressure and heart palpitations, among others.

Bangalore has seen multiple cases of pheochromocytoma. Apollo Hospitals houses some of the best pheochromocytoma doctors who are well-versed in diagnosing and treating this complex condition. The team of pheochromocytoma specialists ensures a comprehensive treatment plan is designed for each patient.

There are various types and stages of pheochromocytoma:

Non-secreting Pheochromocytoma: This type does not produce excess hormones, often leading to no visible symptoms.
Secreting Pheochromocytoma: Characterised by overproduction of hormones, leading to various symptoms.
Malignant Pheochromocytoma: In this case, the tumour has spread to other parts of the body.

High blood pressure

Tests to Diagnose Pheochromocytoma

Doctors’ diagnosing pheochromocytoma involves a series of tests:

Blood Test: Hormone levels are gauged to detect any abnormality.
24-hour Urine Test: Measures catecholamine levels in the urine over 24 hours.
Imaging Tests: CT/MRI scans help visualise the adrenal glands and locate the tumour.
Biopsy: Sometimes, a biopsy might be recommended for definitive diagnosis.
