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.

Cushing syndrome (CS) is a constellation of signs and symptoms caused by excessive exposure to exogenous or endogenous glucocorticoid hormones. Endogenous CS is caused by increased cortisol production by one or both adrenal glands (adrenal CS) or by elevated adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion from a pituitary tumour (Cushing disease (CD)) or ...

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's syndrome is usually caused by the secretion of corticotropin or cortisol by a pituitary or adrenal tumor, respectively, or by ectopic secretion of corticotropin. It is possible to determine the specific abnormality in most patients, but it can sometimes be difficult to decide whether the patient has hypercortisolism and whether it is primary ...

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.

Cushing's disease (CD) is caused by a pituitary tumor secreting corticotropin (ACTH), leading to cortisol excess. Patients with CD comprise approximately 70% of patients with endogenous Cushing's syndrome (CS). If the diagnosis and treatment are delayed, patients with CD may suffer the deleterious consequences of hypercortisolism, leading to ...
