Multiple pheochromocytomas in a patient with blurred vision.

We report on a 19-year-old male diagnosed with multiple pheochromocytomas after an I-123 metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scan. Multiple imaging was obtained because of concern for von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL) after bilateral retinal angiomas were discovered on ophthalmologic consultation as a follow-up from the Emergency Department. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were able to localize the adrenal and extra-adrenal tumors; however, accurate differentiation between pheochromocytomas and other adrenal tumors was not possible.
