The management of such challenging cases is surgical resection. The involvement of renal tissue and renal artery may necessitate meticulous dissection and concomitant nephrectomy. Here, we present a case of 41-year-old man diagnosed with left adrenal pheochromocytoma with complete encasement of left renal artery and partial encasement of aorta. Open left adrenalectomy and nephrectomy was performed after adequate preoperative optimisation. The patient is doing well at 6-month follow-up. Large adrenal pheochromocytoma with renal involvement is a rare presentation and requires optimal preoperative imaging, adequate preoperative alpha and beta blockade and meticulous surgical technique.}, URL = {https://casereports.bmj.com/content/14/9/e244297}, eprint = {https://casereports.bmj.com/content/14/9/e244297.full.pdf}, journal = {BMJ Case Reports CP} }
