We report the case of a 65 year old man with recent onset of insulin requiring
diabetes mellitus, frequent attacks of anginal chest pain, paroxysmal hypertension
poorly controlled with three medications, hyperlipidemia, and mild renal
insufficiency. The patient was found to have pheochromocytoma of the left
adrenal gland, resection of which resulted in total resolution of diabetes,
hypertension, chest pain, hyperlipidemia and renal failure, with no requirement for
any further medical management.
