Pheochromocytoma Presenting as Acute Heart Failure Leading to Cardiogenic Shock and Multiorgan Failure
hindawi.com — “Pheochromocytoma is an endocrine tumor classically presenting with headache, paroxysmal hypertension, and palpitations. We discuss the case of a young male, presenting with acute heart failure and cardiogenic shock requiring stabilization with an intra-aortic balloon pump and a combination of ionotropes and vasopressors. Pheochromocytoma was diagnosed by CT scan, as well as urine and plasma metanephrines. After pretreatment with phenoxy-benzamine, the patient underwent adrenalectomy with subsequ” View full resource at hindawi.com

Early BNP-level changes may be prognostic in acute heart failure
theheart.org — “A drop in BNP over the first few hospitalization days independently predicted survival gains over six months in a post hoc analysis from a randomized trial. Researchers say it's time for a prospective trial in acute decompensated heart failure testing the value of treatment aimed specifically at pushing down natriuretic-peptide levels.” View full resource at theheart.org
