Pheochromocytoma usually presents with nonspecific symptoms such as headache, palpitation, chest pain and hypertension. We present a 48-year-old woman hospitalized due to a pheochromocytoma multi-organ crisis (PMC). It consists of a tetrad of symptoms: multi-organ failure, hyperthermia, encephalopathy and unstable blood pressure. Distinguishing PMC from septic shock may be difficult, and requires needs a high clinical index of suspicion.
嗜铬细胞瘤通常表现为头痛、心悸、胸痛和高血压等非特异性症状。我们报告一名48岁因嗜铬细胞瘤多器官危象（PMC）住院的女性。它由一组四联征症状组成：多器官功能衰竭、高热、脑病和血压不稳定。将PMC与脓毒性休克区分开来可能很困难，需要高度的临床怀疑指数。
