These tumors give rise to an overproduction of catecholamines, causing severe and unpredictable episodic hypertension. The recurrence of this condition presents unique challenges to both patients and healthcare providers, as it demands comprehensive evaluation, precise diagnostic approaches, and tailored treatment strategies. Understanding the intricacies of recurrent pheochromocytoma is crucial for guiding further research and optimizing patient care in the pursuit of improved long-term prognosis and management of this rare medical entity. OBJECTIVES: 1. To present a case of a 20-year-old male who was diagnosed with recurrent pheochromocytoma 2. To discuss the approach to diagnosis and management of pheochromocytoma and its recurrence.
