DOI: 10.1210/jendso/bvab048.263
Abstract: Abstract Management of ACTH-independent CS in the setting of B/L adrenal masses can be challenging. We present a patient with concomitant cortisol and aldosterone hypersecretion and B/L adrenal masses who was treated with unilateral adrenalectomy… read more here.
