ABSTRACT
Pheochromocytoma is a rare neuroendocrine tumor characterized by overproduction of catecholamines. The overproduction of catecholamines leads to cardiac remodeling which manifests in several forms ranging from Takotsubo to dilated cardiomyopathy. Studies suggest that pheochromocytoma-induced cardiomyopathy can take various forms depending on the duration of catecholamine exposure. Myocarditis is a fairly rare presentation of cardiac manifestations of pheochromocytoma which are mainly dominated by Takotsubo and dilated cardiomyopathies. We report a rare case of recurrent myocarditis in a young 37-year-old patient revealing the diagnosis of adrenal pheochromocytoma. Through this case and through a review of the literature we will take stock of the epidemiology of cardiac involvement in pheochromocytoma, mainly cardiomyopathies, and we will take stock of the value of diagnosis and early management in improving the prognosis of patients.
