| Core Tip |
Pheochromocytomas release massive amounts of catecholamines that can cause life-threatening cardiovascular complications, including cardiac arrhythmia, ST and non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction, heart failure and hypertensive urgency. For acute myocardial infarction with unexplained erratic blood pressure, headaches, palpitations and sweating, pheochromocytoma should be considered a differential diagnosis. Pheochromocytoma is a non-atherosclerotic cause of myocardial infarction. The myocardial cell lesions may be caused by tachycardia, coronary artery spasm or cardiomyopathy, which are related to excess catecholamines. Pheochromocytoma with erythrocytosis is rarely reported. Elevated hematocrit contributes to increased blood viscosity and thus, to higher risk of coronary heart disease. |
