[Pheochromocytoma presenting with secondary enuresis in a 13-year-old girl].

Abstract:

:Pheochromocytoma is a rare tumor which is infrequent in children. Although the clinical presentation in children can be atypical, the classic symptoms are headache, sweating and tachycardia. Hypertension is often a constant sign in most patients. There are few cases in literature reporting pheochromocytoma presented with polyuria. We present a 13-year-old girl who came to the Pediatric Nephrologist due to a year of evolution of secondary enuresis. When her blood pressure was taken, she was above the 99th percentile that corresponds to her age and her height that is why she was admitted for treatment and diagnostic study. :El feocromocitoma es un tumor raro, infrecuente en la edad pediátrica. Los síntomas clásicos derivados del exceso de catecolaminas son cefalea, sudoración y palpitaciones, aunque los niños pueden tener una clínica más atípica. La hipertensión arterial suele ser un signo constante en la mayoría de los pacientes. Existen pocos casos descritos de poliuria como forma de presentación de feocromocitoma. Se presenta el caso de una niña de 13 años remitida a consulta de Nefrología Pediátrica por enuresis secundaria de un año de evolución. La tensión arterial clínica tomada durante la exploración era superior al percentil 99 para su edad y talla, motivo por el que se decidió el ingreso para su estudio y tratamiento.
