Abstract
We report a patient with pleural fibrosarcoma recurrent after twelve years post resection, presenting with recurrent falls and loss of consciousness secondary to hypoglycaemia which was never present previously. Her symptoms improved after being treated with diazoxide, an antihypertensive.
