title: [Increase of excretion of urinary catecholamines and its catabolites in a case of pulmonary sarcomatous tumor].
abstract: A five-year-old child presented with a large undifferentiated sarcoma in the right lung. Urinary catecholamines were assayed as tumor markers. A short-lived but significant rise in urinary norepinephrine and dopamine followed by rises in urinary levels of corresponding breakdown products were evidenced.
