Hypokalaemia is more common in patients with ectopic ACTH-secretion than other causes of Cushing's syndrome. Computed tomography, adrenal vein sampling and biochemistry could confirm an ACTH-secreting phaeochromocytoma. It is important to consider that hypersecretion of more than one hormone may exist in a unilateral adrenal adenoma. This patient also presented with recurrent pulmonary emboli, and there is an increased risk of venous thromboembolism in patients with ACTH-secreting phaeochromocytoma.
