Results Two patients showed obvious fluctuation of blood pressure during operation.All patients were pathologically diagnosed as pheochroinocytoma postoperatively.Five patients were followed up {from 3 months to 7 years),and their blood pressure returned to normal.No patient had relapse and malignancy. Conclusion Typical hypertension during urination and hematuria constitute the chief symptoms of bladder pheochroinocytoma.B-ultrasound,CT,and cystoscopy are the main methods for the localization of the lesions.Partial cystectomy or excision of the tumor is the preferred management and postoperative long-term follow-up is necessary.展开更多
