A client is diagnosed with pheochromocytoma. The finding in the urinalysis report supports the diagnosis by Total catecholamines - 640 mmol/24 hr.
How Pheochromocytoma Is Diagnosed?
Rarely, the little glands on top of the kidneys known as the adrenal glands will develop a tumor known as a pheochromocytoma. These tumors may be malignant or benign (noncancerous) (cancerous).
Catecholamines, the hormones that regulate our ability to fight or flee, are frequently overproduced by pheochromocytomas, which results in symptoms including elevated blood pressure, headaches, anxiety, and a sense of impending doom.
A blood or urine test to identify elevated levels of the hormones that these tumors emit is typically the first step in making a diagnosis if suspicious symptoms are noticed or if a person has a family history of a genetic condition associated with this type of tumor. Additional tests and imaging examinations can also be required.
