Recurrent Catecholamine-Induced Cardiomyopathy in a Patient With a Pheochromocytoma
Pheochromocytomas presents with variable clinical manifestations. Cardiomyopathy caused by a pheochromocytoma is well known. We report the case of a 62-year-old woman with recurrent left ventricular dysfunction, who was subsequently found to have a pheochromocytoma. The patient had two different patterns of cardiomyopathy. Patients with a cardiomyopathy, of non-specific origin, should have a ph...

Cardiovascular manifestations include catecholamine-induced cardiomyopathy, which may present as severe left ventricular dysfunction and congestive heart failure.

متن کامل[Catecholamine-induced myocarditis in pheochromocytoma].
Pheochromocytoma is a rare tumor, usually benign, potentially lethal in case of crisis with acute release of catecholamines. The heart is a target and the clinical presentation can mimic various cardiac conditions, thus rendering diagnosis elusive. Cardiac magnetic resonance is a valuable non-invasive diagnostic tool for the evaluation of cardiomyopathies; it allows the identification of catech...
متن کاملPheochromocytoma-induced cardiomyopathy.
A34-year-old woman presented with recurrent 15-minute episodes of palpitations, lightheadedness, and chest tightness. ECGs obtained during these episodes revealed striking global T-wave inversions that resolved spontaneously 2 hours after each episode (Figure 1). Echocardiography revealed severe left ventricular dysfunction with an estimated ejection fraction of 20%. Cardiac catheterization dem...
متن کاملA case of pheochromocytoma combined with catecholamine cardiomyopathy.
A 40-year-old female w~th the left adrenal pheochoromocytoma showed ECG abnormalities and the clinical features similar to act.~te myocardial infarction. Enzymological studies and UCG findings in the acute phase revealed the same pattern as those in acute myocardial infarction. After finding the existence of the left adrenal pheochromocytoma, the differential diagnosis between myocardial infarc...
