Best Doctors for Pheochromocytoma in Delhi

Pheochromocytoma is a rare tumour, originating in the adrenal glands, small hormone-generating organs sitting atop each kidney. This tumour triggers the adrenal glands to overproduce certain hormones known as catecholamines, including adrenaline and noradrenaline. While the exact cause remains ambiguous, genetic mutations inherited or spontaneously occurring are believed to contribute to its occurrence.

Delhi, the heart of India, sees a number of these rare cases. With shifting lifestyles and varied genetic histories, the city’s population is diverse and exposed to different health concerns. However, Apollo Hospitals in Delhi stands as a beacon of hope, housing some of the best pheochromocytoma doctors and specialists who can expertly manage and treat this rare condition.

Types of Pheochromocytoma

Pheochromocytomas are usually benign (non-cancerous), with only about 10% of them being malignant (cancerous) and more likely to spread to other parts of the body. These tumours can be classified based on their origin as either:

  • Adrenal Pheochromocytomas: These originate within the adrenal glands.

  • Extra-adrenal Pheochromocytomas: These originate outside the adrenal glands, often located in the abdomen or pelvis.

Symptoms of Pheochromocytoma

Due to the excessive production of catecholamines, pheochromocytomas can stimulate a variety of symptoms including:

  • High blood pressure (usually severe and sudden)

  • Frequent headaches

  • Excessive sweating

  • Palpitations

  • Tremors

  • Chest pain

  • Abdominal pain

  • Episodes of nausea and vomiting

  • Anxiety and panic attacks

Tests to Diagnose Pheochromocytoma

To diagnose pheochromocytoma, the doctors and specialists for treating pheochromocytomas at Apollo Hospitals may suggest:

  • Blood and Urine Tests: To measure levels of catecholamines or other substances

  • Imaging Tests: To locate the tumour

  • Genetic Testing: To identify any inherited genetic mutations

Treatment or Surgery Options for Pheochromocytoma at Apollo Hospitals, Delhi

At Apollo Hospitals in Delhi, our team of the best doctors and surgeons for pheochromocytoma treatment tailor the treatment plan based on the size, location, and type of tumour. Some common treatment options include:

  • Surgery: Surgical removal of the tumour (adrenalectomy) is often the primary treatment and can be done using laparoscopic techniques or open surgery based on the condition.
