Abstract:
Hemoptysis as a presenting symptom of pheochromocytoma has not received wide recognition. This report describes a patient with a pheochromocytoma complicated by hemoptysis. The hemoptysis occurred during paroxysms of hypertension and was cured by surgical removal of the tumor. Knowledge of this association could lead to more rapid diagnosis.
