Somatostatin receptor scintigraphy: Its value in tumor localization in patients with Cushing's syndrome caused by ectopic corticotropin or corticotropin-releasing hormone secretion [PDF]
, 1994 purpose: To assess the feasibility of somatostatin receptor scintigraphy for patients with Cushing's syndrome caused by tumors secreting ectopic corticotropin or corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH).

Clinical Practice Patterns in Bone Health Assessment and Management in Endogenous Cushing's Syndrome
Clinical Endocrinology, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 302-311, April 2026.ABSTRACT Objective Skeletal fragility is a common complication of endogenous Cushing's Syndrome (CS), although specific guidelines for managing bone health are lacking. This study aimed to assess clinicians' current engagement with bone health assessment and management in patients with endogenous CS. Design Retrospective‐cohort design. Patients Seventy‐

ACTH-producing neuroendocrine tumor of thymus with recurrences. Clinical case
Эндокринная хирургия, 2015 One of the most difficult in diagnostic and treatment options for endogenous Cushing is the ectopic ACTH syndrome, which causes the development of tumors of different histogenesis localization producing adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), and much less -

A rare case report of renal ewing sarcoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor with ACTH production
BMC Urology, 2022 Background Ewing sarcoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) of the renal is extremely rare. The common cause of ectopic ACTH syndrome is pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors, such as small cell carcinomas and carcinoid tumors.

Clonal Composition of Human Adrenocortical Neoplasms [PDF]
, 1994 The mechanisms of tumorigenesis of adrenocortical neoplasms are still not understood. Tumor formation may be the result of spontaneous transformation of adrenocortical cells by somatic mutations.

Augmented Hypothalamic Corticotrophin-Releasing Hormone mRNA and Corticosterone Responses to Stress in Adult Rats Exposed to Perinatal Hypoxia [PDF]
, 2007 Stressful events before or just after parturition alter the subsequent phenotypical response to stress in a general process termed programming. Hypoxia during the period before and during parturition, and in the postnatal period, is one of the most ...
