title: Large dopamine-secreting pheochromocytoma: case report.
abstract: Pheochromocytomas are rare tumors that typically present with catecholamine-stimulated symptoms. Some pheochromocytomas secrete dopamine in addition to or in the absence of other catecholamines. Patients with these tumors are frequently normotensive. We describe a normotensive 26-year-old woman with a large pheochromocytoma that secreted multiple catecholamines, including dopamine.
