    Abstract:
    A twenty-eight years old patient with phaeochromocytoma in pregnancy is reported. In the second trimester, she was admitted to hospital for complaints of headache, fever, palpitation and weakness. A phaeochromocytoma was diagnosed. Alpha and beta blockers were given to regulate arterial blood pressure until foetal maturity was reached. Delivery was by caesarean section and the operation was continued with a right adrenalectomy. Pathological examination revealed a phaeochromocytoma.
