Amelioration or cure of hypertension, hypercortisolism, diarrhea with steatorrhea, and massive proteinuria resulted from excision of a pheochromocytoma that contained immunoreactive ACTH, VIP, and somatostatin. Ectopic ACTH production by the tumor was clearly the cause of the hypercortisolism, and the possible involvement of VIP and somatostatin in the diarrhea and steatorrhea was considered. The response to tumor removal suggested that the mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis shown on renal biopsy was also a paraneoplastic phenomenon.
切除一个含有免疫反应性促肾上腺皮质激素（ACTH）、血管活性肠肽（VIP）和生长抑素的嗜铬细胞瘤后，高血压、皮质醇增多症、脂肪泻伴腹泻和大量蛋白尿得到改善或治愈。肿瘤产生的异位ACTH显然是皮质醇增多症的原因，并考虑了VIP和生长抑素可能与腹泻和脂肪泻有关。对肿瘤切除的反应表明，肾活检显示的系膜增生性肾小球肾炎也是一种副肿瘤现象。
