Introduction
Neuroendocrine tumors represent a rare entity whose diagnosis is based on clinical, biological and radiological arguments. When they are secreting, they expose the patient to serious complications that can be much more severe during pregnancy and engage the vital prognosis of both the mother and the fetus, which requires multidisciplinary management: anesthesiologist resuscitator - obstetrician – endocrinologist.
Case presentation
In our article, we report the case of a patient with an estimated pregnancy at 25 weeks of amenorrhea (WA) with a history of 3 miscarriages related to atypical gravid hypertension.
The treatment consisted of preoperative medical preparation followed by removal of the paraganglioma and postoperative monitoring. The maternal-fetal evolution was favorable.
Conclusion
The non-negligible morbi-mortality of this type of tumors require a multidisciplinary management.
