Zhou J et al. - The authors report a 15-year-old girl who was presented with paroxysmal hypertension. An iodine-131 metaiodobenzylguanidine scintigraphy scanning showed a pheochromocytoma in her right atrial and ventricular wall. This patient underwent a successful surgical resection of the tumor, a reconstruction of the atrial ventricular wall and right coronary artery bypass grafting. Her blood pressure remained normal thereafter.
