AbstractPhaeochromocytoma and paraganglioma are chromaffine tumours secreting catecholamines. They are usually revealed by a paroxystic hypertensive crisis associated with headaches, palpitation and sweats. We reported a case of a young patient presenting a state of life threatening cardiogenic shock as unusual revelation of this tumour, requiring the implementation of an extracorporeal life support until myocardial recovery.Copyright © 2011.
