[Diastolic murmur caused by a phaeochromocytoma (author's transl)].
A protodiastolic murmur was noted in a 24-year-old man with phaeochromocytoma, the murmur disappearing three months after tumour resection. It was probably the result of pulmonary regurgitation, caused by reversible changes in the pulmonary vascular bed or pulmonary valve from the increased catecholamine production.
