ABSTRACT
Pheochromocytoma is a rare but life-threatening condition due to catecholamine release induced by drug treatments such as ß-blockers or glucocorticoids. We present a case of hypertensive crisis due to pheochromocytoma, induced after the initiation of dexamethasone and landiolol during intensive care for severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Based on a detailed medical history review, the patient was previously diagnosed with primary aldosteronism by confirmatory tests, moreover, an abdominal computed tomography scan identified an adrenal tumor 2 years before current admission. We tentatively diagnosed the patient with pheochromocytoma and initiated α-blockers without conducting a catecholamine report, leading to stable hemodynamics. We present a successfully managed case of pheochromocytoma concomitant with COVID-19, which has become a global crisis.
