Incidence of the disease is uncommon and can be cured by surgery with early detection. However, patients who have invasive or metastatic forms of malignant pheochromocytoma may affect the prognosis of the disease negatively. They risk danger of death. Therefore, patients need to be closely monitored and need complex nursing care to prevent complication. Nurses are the key for pheochromocytoma care because they work closely with the patient.
