A 31-year old woman was admitted to our clinic complaining of high blood pressure, dizziness, constipation, mental irritability and weight loss. The physical examination revealed goiter in her neck. The plasma levels of norepinephrine and epinephrine were 3.45 and 0.76 ng/ml, respectively. Urinary excretion of norepinephrine was 1 mg and epinephrine was 32.2 micrograms/24-hours. The examination by radiography and radioactive isotope revealed a tumor in the left adrenal region and another in the left lower lobe of the thyroid. After the operations, pheochromocytoma and papillary adenocarcinoma of the thyroid gland were recognized pathologically. However, 17 months later, the recurrence of pheochromocytoma in the contralateral adrenal region was discovered and removed. Although the co-existence of bilateral pheochromocytoma and papillary adenocarcinoma of the thyroid gland is not one of multiple endocrine neoplasia, to the best of our knowledge, only 7 such cases have been reported in the published literature.

Bilateral pheochromocytoma associated with papillary adenocarcinoma of the thyroid gland. Report of an unusual case.
