Pheochromocytoma is mainly treated by surgery, but before surgery, it needs high sodium diet and increased fluid intake to prevent the occurrence of intraoperative hypotension; use alpha-blockers such as prazosin and calcium channel blockers such as nifedipine to control the blood pressure, in order to prepare for the surgery, and it can be cured by surgery in general.
