Abstract:This case emphasizes that in a patient with NF1 a phaeochromocytoma must be considered as a possible cause of hypertension. It is likely that the patient's emphysema was associated with the NF1, while the haemangiopericytoma was presumably unconnected with the NF1.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
