    AbstractWe report the case of a patient who presented hypertension paroxysmal with acute pulmonary oedema followed by cardiocirculatory arrest during gynaecological surgery for resection of latero-aortic lymph nodes suspected to be cervical cancer metastases. This intervention, originally oncologic, has discovered ectopic phaeochromocytoma a posteriori. The management of perioperative serious adverse events revealing the undiagnosed phaeochromocytoma is discussed.Copyright © 2012. Published by Elsevier SAS.
