Glucose and insulin response to oral glucose and C-peptide secretion after glucagon i.v. were evaluated before and after alpha-blockade with phenoxybenzamine. Alpha-blocking treatment restored the inhibited basal and stimulated C-secretion but did not normalize glucose tolerance. After tumor removal metabolic abnormalities were normalized, confirming the role of endogenous catecholamine excess in the pathogenesis of our patient's glucose intolerance.
