1. The angiographic features of 5 cases of pheochromocytoma localized by retrograde femoral aortography are described.

2. Hypertensive crises attributable solely to the procedure were not encountered in these 5 cases.

3. To our knowledge, 42 cases (including the 5 in this paper) of pheochromocytoma have been studied by translumbar or retrograde femoral aortography since 1958 with 6 hypertensive crises and no fatalities.

4. Retrograde femoral aortography is relatively safe and is an effective method for the preoperative diagnosis and localization of pheochromocytoma.

5. Retroperitoneal pneumography should be reserved for the occasional suspected pheochromocytoma in which aortography does not demonstrate or adequately outline the tumor.
