Abstract

YOSHIKAWA, K., YAMAGUCHI, H., OJIMA, M., MASUDA, T. and SASANO, N Particular Cases of Cushing's Syndrome-One with Adrenocortical Carcinoma and the Other with Double Adenomas-. Tohoku J. exp. Med., 1985, 146 (1), 73-82-Two particular cases of adrenocortical tumors associated with Cushing's syndrome were documented. In the first case, the steroid pattern suggested a malignancy, and the histology of the excised tumor confirmed it. In the second case, the left adrenal had two distinct tumors; one dark-brown, and the other yellow in color. Recent trends in the diagnosis and treatment of Cushing's syndrome were discussed.
