RESUMEN

This case report describes the radiofrequency (RF) ablation of a pheochromocytoma in a 35-year-old female with multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) II syndrome, who previously underwent a right adrenalectomy and thyroidectomy. The patient presented with a new tumor in the left adrenal gland, detected via imaging, without evidence of metastasis. Opting against surgical adrenalectomy due to previous surgeries, she underwent RF ablation after preparatory alpha and beta blockader. During RF ablation, a hypertensive crisis occurred, managed effectively with nitroprusside sodium and supportive measures. Postprocedure recovery was uneventful, with normal metanephrine levels and imaging indicating successful ablation. This report highlights the feasibility and challenges of using RF ablation for adrenal pheochromocytoma, suggesting a potential shift towards less invasive management for select cases.
