The congenital form of pheochromocytoma is known to be fraught with high risk of post-treatment relapse, bilateral, multicentric or primarily multiple lesions. The patients presenting with the syndrome of multiple type 2 endocrine neoplasia usually have no extra-adrenal pheochromocytomas or metastases. Both examination and treatment of these patients should be performed taking these peculiarities into consideration. We describe a family with multiple type 2 endocrine neoplasia and highlight selected aspects of the management of the patients presenting with genetically determined pheochromocytoma.
