Thyroid lesions of neuroendocrine origin? Thinking of a “polka‐dotted” zebra! Case series from three Italian referral centers and review of the literature

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 37, Issue 9, September 2025.
Thyroid metastases from neuroendocrine neoplasm (NEN) should be considered in case of suspicious thyroid nodules in patients with a positive medical history of NEN, mainly of thoracic origin, even after many years from the initial diagnosis. The differential diagnosis from primary intrathyroidal NEN is challenging.

Adrenocorticotropic hormone-producing pheochromocytoma: analysis of clinical cases

open access: yesОжирение и метаболизм, 2015
Ectopic secretion of ACTH from non-pituitary tumors, referred to as ectopic ACTH syndrome (EAS), accounts for about 10–20% of Cushing’s syndrome (CS). Ectopic hormone-secreting pheochromocytomas (Pheo) are rare.

Generation of Neural Organoids and Their Application in Disease Modeling and Regenerative Medicine

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 29, August 7, 2025.
Neural organoids provide a versatile platform for neurological research. Advances in organoid technology have partially achieved human neural tissue complexity in terms of tissue structure, cell diversity, and neural signaling, offering insights into neural disorders and regenerative strategies. Technology advances from biomaterials, bio‐manufacturing,

Hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis as a clinical clue to ectopic ACTH syndrome: two cases of neuroendocrine carcinoma

open access: yesEndocrine Regulations
Objective. Ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) syndrome (EAS) is a rare, but potentially life-threatening cause of Cushing’s syndrome. Its clinical recognition may be delayed, especially when classical features of hypercortisolism are absent.

Ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone syndrome associated with olfactory neuroblastoma: acquirement of adrenocorticotropic hormone expression during disease course as shown by serial immunohistochemistry examinations

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research, 2018
Ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) syndrome (EAS) is a condition of endogenous hypercortisolism sustained by an extrapituitary ACTH-secreting tumor.

Adrenocorticotropic Hormone-Dependent Cushing’s Syndrome : Use of an octreotide trial to distinguish between pituitary or ectopic sources

open access: yesSultan Qaboos University Medical Journal, 2015
Objectives: Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) overproduction is usually due to a pituitary tumour which is often not visible on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, ACTH overproduction may be due to an ectopic source. This study aimed to develop a

A Case of Paraneoplastic Cushing Syndrome Presenting as Hyperglycemic Hyperosmolar Nonketotic Syndrome

open access: yesCase Reports in Oncology, 2017
Carcinoid tumors are neuroendocrine tumors that mainly arise in the gastrointestinal tract, lungs, and bronchi. Bronchopulmonary carcinoids have been associated with Cushing syndrome, which results from ectopic adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH ...

Case-series of paraneoplastic Cushing syndrome in small-cell lung cancer

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports, 2018
The objective of this study is to report three cases of paraneoplastic or ectopic Cushing syndrome, which is a rare phenomenon of the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-dependent Cushing syndrome.

Role of Adrenalectomy in Ectopic ACTH Syndrome

open access: yesEndocrine Journal, 2005
Evaluation of adrenalectomy in patients diagnosed with ectopic ACTH syndrome was studied. Twenty-three clinical cases diagnosed with ectopic ACTH syndrome were analyzed at Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH). Cases consisted of 14 males and 9 females, with mean age of 38 years. All 23 cases had positive
