Continuous renal replacement therapy for haemodynamic collapse and rhabdomyolysis induced by pheochromocytoma crisis

Pheochromocytoma associated with pregnancy is not common. Caesarean section may induce pheochromocytoma crisis, resulting in a lethal condition. The clinical picture of pheochromocytoma crisis is extremely variable. In this report, we describe a case of severe pheochromocytoma crisis induced by caesarean section presenting with hyperpyrexia, haemodynamic collapse, muscle weakness, heart failure, and acute kidney injury. Furthermore, we report that the muscle weakness was a manifestation of rhabdomyolysis, resulting from the pheochromocytoma crisis. Standard medical therapy failed to halt the patient's rapidly deteriorating condition. Continuous renal replacement therapy removed catecholamines from the circulation, resulting in improvement of haemodynamics and abrogation of rhabdomyolysis.

“…14 Another report recently showed that CRRT could cure pheochromocytoma crisis with multiple organ failure. 15 In our report, the patient suffered not only from multiple organ failure but also rhabdomyolysis. Upon starting CRRT, the patient rapidly recovered exhibiting haemodynamic stabilization and return of muscle function.…”

“…Furthermore, since CHDF is more suited to the removal of small to medium-sized molecules compared to regular hemodialysis, CHDF may be highly effective against catecholamines that have relatively small molecular sizes (15). In fact, there are a few studies that have reported on the effectiveness of CHDF in pheochromocytoma crisis (2,3). According to a case report by Seo et al, the serum creatinine level increased from 1.33 mg/dL to 2.55 mg/dL within 48 hours, and the patient developed acute kidney injury (2).…”

In addition, acute kidney injury was suspected in two cases reported by Tanigawa et al (3), with serum creatinine levels of 2.23 and 2.35 mg/dL, respectively.…”

“…A case of pheochromocytoma crisis in which the patient developed acute heart failure and went into temporary cardiopulmonary arrest is herein presented. In a few previous case reports, the blood catecholamine concentrations were reduced through catecholamine removal using continuous hemodiafiltration (CHDF) (2,3). However, the detailed effects of CHDF have not yet been clarified.…”

Continuous Hemodiafiltration for Pheochromocytoma Crisis with a Positive Outcome

et al. 2019

A 38-year-old woman who consulted a local doctor with chief complaints of sudden palpitations, headaches, and chest pain is herein presented. After admission, pheochromocytoma crisis was suspected. Since the patient had a history of acute heart failure and had once survived an episode of cardiac arrest, a rapid decrease in the catecholamine levels was needed. After resuscitation, pharmacological therapy with agents such as phentolamine and landiolol was administered, and continuous hemodiafiltration (CHDF) was performed to reduce the catecholamine levels. Elective surgery was then performed, and a positive outcome was achieved. This case suggests that the preoperative use of CHDF to control pheochromocytoma crisis may therefore be effective.
