Does an Analysis of the Pulsatile Secretion Pattern of Adrenocorticotropin and Cortisol Predict the Result of Transsphenoidal Surgery in Cushing’s Disease. [PDF]
The endocrinological, surgical, and histological findings of patients with ACTH-dependent Cushing's disease were correlated with the pulsatile secretion pattern of ACTH and cortisol and the outcome after transsphenoidal pituitary surgery.
