Abstract:
Subclinical Cushing's syndrome (CS) is attracting increasing interest since the serendipitous discovery of an adrenal mass has become a rather frequent event owing to the routine use of sophisticated radiologic techniques. Cortical adenoma is the most frequent type of adrenal incidentaloma accounting for approximately 50% of cases in surgical series and even greater shares in medical series. Incidentally discovered adrenal adenomas may secrete cortisol in an autonomous manner that is not fully restrained by pituitary feedback, in 5 to 20% of cases depending on study protocols and diagnostic criteria. The criteria for qualifying subclinical cortisol excess are controversial and presently there is no consensus on a gold standard for the diagnosis of this condition. An increased frequency of hypertension, central obesity, impaired glucose tolerance, diabetes and hyperlipemia has been described in patients with subclinical CS; however, there is still no clear demonstration of the long-term complications of this condition whose management remains largely empirical. Either adrenalectomy or careful observation associated with treatment of the metabolic syndrome have been suggested as treatment options.

AbstractCushing syndrome (CS) is the result of extended exposure to excessive glucocorticoids from endogenous or exogenous sources. Cushing's syndrome (CS) is associated with reduced life quality and increased mortality, mostly due to cardiovascular disease. We report the case of a 26-year-old female patient who presented with heart failure who was found to have Cushing syndrome and recovered after supportive treatment.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTIatrogenic Cushing's syndrome is an undesirable outcome of glucocorticoids treatment. It can be increased by pharmacologic interactions. Glucocorticoid therapy, given in association with ritonavir, and some azole treatments are causes of iatrogenic Cushing's syndrome. We present a patient with common-variable immunodeficiency who received 7 years of itraconazole therapy for bronchial colonization withAspergillusin combination with inhaled fluticasone without any Cushingoid symptoms. After a switch to posaconazole, the patient developed Cushingoid symptoms.

Abstract:
Protein wasting is a complication of glucocorticoid (GC) therapy. It causes substantial morbidity and there is no treatment. This thesis investigates the metabolic mechanisms underlying GC-induced protein wasting and the potential for anabolic hormones to reverse protein loss. The models of GC excess were Cushing's syndrome and GC therapy. Whole body protein metabolism was assessed using the leucine turnover technique and body composition by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry to estimate lean body mass (LBM) and fat mass (FM). As previous studies demonstrated that LBM and FM influenced rates of protein metabolism, the magnitude of body compositional abnormality in Cushing's syndrome was determined. After accounting for the greater FM (30%) and lesser LBM (15%), protein metabolism in Cushing's syndrome was characterised by a significant increase in protein oxidation, an abnormality that leads to irreversible protein loss. Successful treatment of Cushing's syndrome normalised protein oxidation. Studies of the acute and chronic effects of therapeutic GCs revealed a time-dependent effect on protein metabolism. GCs acutely increased protein oxidation. However, the rate of protein oxidation during chronic therapy at a similar dose was not significantly different to untreated control subjects. This time-dependent change suggests that GC-induced stimulation of protein oxidation does not persist and could represent a metabolic adaptation to limit protein loss. This finding contrasts with that in Cushing's syndrome, where protein oxidation is persistently elevated. This difference may represent a dose effect. Studies in GH-deficient subjects revealed that GH induced a fall in protein oxidation that was significantly correlated with a subsequent gain in LBM. This suggests that the anabolic potential of a therapeutic substance can be predicted by its ability to suppress protein oxidation acutely. Finally, the potential for GH and androgens to reverse the metabolic effects of GCs was assessed. A preliminary study in GC users revealed that a GH dose of 0.8 mg/d was effective in reducing protein oxidation. In a subsequent study, the GH-induced reduction in protein oxidation in women on GCs was enhanced by combined treatment with dehydroepiandrosterone, an androgen. In summary, GCs induce protein loss by stimulating protein oxidation. GH reverses this effect and this action is enhanced by coadministration of androgens. GH and androgens may be used therapeutically to prevent protein loss induced by GCs.

Abstract:
Cushing’s syndrome is caused by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-secreting or cortisol-secreting tumors. In most cases, the hypercortisolism is caused by an ACTH-secreting tumor of the pituitary. An excess of circulating cortisol adversely affects all major organ systems, including the cardiovascular system and therefore produces a wide range of clinical features. Perioperative morbidity and mortality will largely be determined by the magnitude of cardiac dysfunction encountered. Successful perioperative management depends on a thorough preoperative assessment of affected organs, comprehensive intraoperative monitoring, and an understanding of potential interactions with anesthetic drugs. Surgical reselection is most often the definitive treatment for this syndrome, however there are pharmacologic interventions that can be undertaken when necessary.

Abstract:
Cushing’s syndrome is a descriptive term of a syndrome secondary to elevated levels of steroids or cortisol, while Cushing’s disease is hypercortisolemia that results from an adrenocorticotropic (ACTH)-secreting pituitary adenoma. Patients will present with cushingoid features on physical examination and can be myopathic with proximal rather than distal muscle weakness. Diagnosis can be obtained by multiple avenues including but not limited to checking 24 hour urine cortisol, a dexamethasone suppression test, checking ACTH levels, a CRH (corticotrophin-releasing hormone) stimulation test, and inferior petrosal sinus sampling (IPSS). Once Cushing’s disease is confirmed, treatment is via transsphenoidal resection of the pituitary adenoma.

Abstract:
The incidence of adrenal tumours has risen dramatically over the last two decades, mainly due to the incidental detection of adrenal lesions on cross sectional imaging performed for other diseases. These ‘incidentalomas’ are commoner than the well-known hormonal syndromes such as Cushing’s, Conn’s, and pheochromocytoma. Suspicion or detection of an adrenal tumour should result in a detailed biochemical and structural evaluation in a multidisciplinary setting. The relatively low incidence of adrenal disease coupled with the varied nature of presentation makes concentration of volume and encouragement of expertise difficult in this area; however, these are important as it correlates directly with outcome.
