Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma has been associated with a variety of paraneoplastic symptoms and signs, and hence has been described as the internist’s tumor. Hypertension is one of the most common of these paraneoplastic signs. Renal cell carcinoma has also been associated with ectopic hormone production, which has included renin, erythropoietin, insulin, glucagon and parathyroid hormone. 1 We report a case of hypertension due to the ectopic production of norepinephrine from renal cell carcinoma.
