Clin Case Rep. 2022 Nov 19;10(11):e6607. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.6607. eCollection 2022 Nov.

Abstract

Cushing's disease is a rare condition caused by a benign pituitary tumor underlying adrenocorticotropic hormone excess. Medical treatment is implemented when surgical resection is not curative. We present a case of Cushing's disease with recurrence of macroadenoma who developed iatrogenic adrenal insufficiency in the setting of Osilodrostat treatment.

Keywords: Cushing's disease; Osilodrostat; adrenal insufficiency; biochemical monitoring.
