Abstract

Paragangliomas (PGLs) are extra-adrenal neuroendocrine tumors. PGL of the urinary bladder are very rare and commonly present with features of hypertensive crisis, headache, syncope, and other symptoms of sympathetic excess. A few of these tumors are silent at the presentation. Here, we report a case of a urinary bladder PGL, presenting with lower abdominal pain.
