Harvey Cushing: Cushing's Disease
Journal of Perioperative Practice, 2012In 1932 Harvey Cushing published an article entitled ‘Basophil adenomas of the pituitary and their clinical manifestations'. These are rare tumours of the anterior pituitary gland, at the base of the brain, with striking manifestations, which include adiposity of the face and trunk, but not the limbs, weakness, fatigue, abdominal striae, facial hair ...

During the past 30 years, there have been advances in understanding of the pathogenesis of Cushing's syndrome and in differential diagnosis of its various forms. Improved diagnostic tests and procedures have increased the ability to recognise even mild hypercortisolism and have provided the means to obtain an accurate diagnosis. Despite these advances,

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1997
Endogenous Cushing's Syndrome (CS) is a relatively uncommon disease in children. The etiology is more often a primary adrenal cause in infants and younger children, and corticotroph adenoma in older ones. Diagnostic evaluation must be stepwise and methodical, aimed at first confirming the presence of the disease, and then looking for the etiology.

A 45 year old woman was being regularly reviewed in primary and secondary care because of a five year history of type 2 diabetes that had required early insulin treatment; refractory hypertension; and subsequent chronic kidney disease. She had previously described other symptoms, including weight gain, bruising, flushes, and low mood, all of which had ...

Cushing syndrome is the constellation of signs and symptoms caused by protracted exposure to glucocorticoids. The most common cause of Cushing syndrome in children and adolescents is exogenous administration of glucocorticoids. Presenting features commonly include weight gain, growth retardation, hirsutism, obesity, striae, acne and hypertension ...

Together with Sir William Macewen (1848–1924) and Sir Victor Horsley (1857–1916), Harvey Cushing (1869–1939) is recognised as one of the triumvirate of founders of the speciality of neuosurgery.

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2012
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.

Clinics in Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1985
Cushing's syndrome remains one of the most challenging problems in clinical endocrinology. Cushing's disease is caused in the majority of cases by basophil pituitary microadenomas which may be successfully treated by trans-sphenoidal hypophysectomy.
