Abstract
Paraganglioma (PGL) are rare tumors arising from extra-adrenal chromaffin cells and occasionally secret catecholamines. The patient commonly presents with headache, palpitation, anxiety, diaphoresis, and episodic or sustained hypertension. Rarely patient can present with Raynaud's phenomenon. We present a case of adolescent girl who presented with isolated Raynaud's phenomenon as only manifestation of metastasis of PGL 3 years after undergoing surgical excision of normetanephrine secreting abdominal PGL.
