Abstract
Doege-Potter syndrome leads to severe and sustained symptomatic hypoglycemia and is associated with the solitary fibrous tumor. It is a rare cause and its diagnosis requires a clinical suspicion and other markers such as insulin-like growth factor-II. Here, we describe a case of a patient with intrathoracic tumor and hypoglycemia.
