title: Pituitary prolactinoma, pancreatic glucagonomas, and aldosterone-producing adrenal cortical adenoma: a suggested variant of multiple endocrine neoplasia type I.
abstract: A case of a pituitary prolactinoma, pancreatic glucagonoma, and an aldosterone-producing adrenal cortical adenoma coexisting in a 65-year-old man is reported. This case may represent a sporadic variant of the multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type I first manifested by hyperaldosteronism.
