DOI: 10.1186/s12902-019-0433-9
Abstract: BackgroundClinical care of patients with cyclic Cushing’s syndrome (CS) is challenging. Classical pitfalls include incorrect subtyping, unnecessary surgical procedures and delayed definite treatment.Case presentationA 43-year-old female suffered from a rapidly cycling ectopic CS. She experienced… read more here.

DOI: 10.1507/endocrj.ej21-0156
Abstract: Cushing's disease (CD), which manifests as excess cortisol secretion, is caused by adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH)-secreting pituitary adenomas. Such adenomas are occasionally difficult to identify on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and thorough endocrinological examination may be… read more here.
