수술 후 2 일째 흉부 단순 촬영에서 폐부종 악화, 혈압 및 산소포화도 저하되면서 심정지 발생하여 15분간 흉부 압박 후 자발순환 회복되었고, 심기능 저하, 폐부종 악화되어 심폐보조순환술 시행 수술 후 4 일째 소변량 감소하고 산혈증 진행되어 지속적정정맥혈액투석 시행하였으나 폐부종 악화되어 혈압 및 산소포화도 유지되지 않았으며 동공반사 소실되어 매우 불량한 예후 예상되었음. 당시 Ejection fraction 5% 로 회복소견 보이지 않았음 입원 22 일째 맥박 소실, 심전도상 정지 소견 보여 사망선언

Cardiac manifestations of Pheochromocytoma Cardiomyopathies Forms of myocardial ischemia Primarily arrhythmogenic conditions
Mechanism of Catecholamine induced Cardiomyopathy Catecholamine-induced vasomotor constriction of the myocardial circulation Catecholamine direct toxicity Calcium overload Catecholamine oxidation product Free Radical Sarcolemmal permeability Ischemic damage Myocardial change Focal areas of myocytolysis Myofiber necrosis Interstitial fibrosis Mononuclear inflammatory infiltrates
Catecholamine-induced cardiomyopathy can be irreversible or reversible. In the presence of heart failure or pulmonary edema, one must consider pheochromocytoma as the cause.
