Undiagnosed phaeochromocytoma following infrainguinal bypass surgery

    Abstract

    We present a rare case of undiagnosed phaeochromocytoma following infrainguinal bypass surgery. The patient, a 59-year-old lady, had a one year history of hypertension following a first femoro-tibial bypass and presented as a cardiorespiratory emergency in the admission room following her contralateral femoro-tibial bypass. The patient recovered after some days in intensive care despite a delayed diagnosis.
