Presentation

Abdominal discomfort, and hypertension.
Body
was changed:
Imaging features typical for an organ of Zuckerkandlparaganglioma with liver metastases (likely accounting for the patient's hypertension), with strikingly similar imaging features between the primary tumour and liver metastases. This can also be described as an extra-adrenal phaeochromocytoma. Note is how neuroendocrine tumour metastases are generally easier to see on late arterial phase imaging rather than portal venous phase.
