Abstract excerpt

Cushing's disease and its associated clinical syndrome reflect the effects of excess cortisol on the individual. The cause of Cushing's disease is ordinarily an ACTH-secreting benign pituitary adenoma. The diagnosis of Cushing's disease is established by sophisticated endocrine testing and comprehensive imaging studies. Because of the devastating effects of excess cortisol, therapy that provides prompt and...
