: We present a case of a 61-year-old female patient with ectopic corticotropin (ACTH) syndrome, hypopituitarism, and catecholamine excess due to a paraganglioma at the inferior pole of the left kidney. In this article we discuss the hormonal findings in the patient and its consequences, the pitfalls of the endocrine workup, and the results of our immunohistological and molecular studies in more detail.
