Abstract
A case of pheochromocytoma with diabetes is reported and the symptomatology of this syndrome is discussed. The persistence of a decreased carbohydrate tolerance after successful removal of the tumor seems to give support to the theory that hyperglycemia of extrapancreatic origin may cause irreversible pancreatic islet cell damage and diabetes.Keywords
