Abstract/OtherAbstract:
There are no previous reports of serial echocardiographic findings in patients with pheochromocytoma. We report a 50-year-old woman with pheochromocytoma who developed acute heart injury. Echocardiography revealed that the acute myocardial injury started early in the base and subsequently extended to the mid-portion of the heart. The injury persisted longer in the base than in the mid-portion.
