Abstract
Pheochromocytoma is an infrequent and severe disease; it occurs early, its main manifestation is hypertension and its association with signs of seriousness makes it severe. Our observation is an example of this; the pheochromocytoma is revealed by a bi-frontal ischemic stroke which dominated the initial picture in a 51-year-old adult. Imaging guided the diagnosis (cerebral CT, ultrasound and abdominal CT), confirmed by the determination of urinary catecholamines.
