Abstract

Although bilateral pheochromocytomas are frequently encountered in familial cases, a cortical-sparing approach outweighs the need for total adrenalectomy and its continuing repercussions of lifelong steroid dependency. Hereby highlighting a case of boy with bilateral pheochromocytomas managed with bilateral cortical sparing adrenalectomy. Multi-disciplinary approach and a minimal invasive technique aided the management and delayed the need for life-long steroid supplementation.
