title: Phaeochromocytoma diagnosed during labour.
abstract: The diagnosis of phaeochromocytoma during pregnancy is rare. We present the management of vaginal delivery in a woman diagnosed with the condition during labour. A Medline search and follow-up of references failed to find any similar report in the last 30 years.
