AbstractCushing's syndrome (CS) results from prolonged exposure to elevated endogenous cortisol. Majority of cases are caused by ACTH, pituitary, or ectopic origin. Primary adrenal hypersecretion is 15–20% caused by adenomas, carcinomas (ACC), and rarely by nodular adrenocortical disease. CS presents with all typical features.

A case of cyclic Cushing's syndrome due to a pituitary adenoma is described. The patient demonstrated a prolonged cycle length of approximately six months, during which a spontaneous remission occurred both clinically and ...

Summary This report deals with 21 dogs with spontaneous hyperadrenocorticism. The clinical picture was characterized by abdominal enlargement, polyphagia, polydipsia, muscular weakness, obesity and alopecia. Slight diabetes mellitus was encountered sporadically. In the bitches oestrus was usually absent for a long time.

Abstract. In this report we describe a patient who produced the clinical and laboratory features of Cushing's syndrome by injecting himself for many months with hydrocortisone. Factitious Cushing's syndrome is a variant of the Münchausen syndrome and should be considered if tests used to establish the diagnosis of Cushing's syndrome appear incongruous ...

Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2000Classic Cushing's syndrome is a rare disease with an estimated incidence of 1 case per 100,000 persons. With routine use of imaging techniques such as ultrasound and CT, adrenal masses are being detected with increased frequency. A substantial percentage of these incidentalomas are hormonally active, with 5% to 20% of the tumors producing ...

The 10 years since this journal's last review of CS have seen extraordinary advances in our understanding of many aspects of its causes, diagnosis, and treatment. The spectrum of what are now called the Cushing syndromes has expanded considerably to include CD, multiple sources of ectopic ACTH secretion, and an apparent autoimmune cause.
