Ectopic ACTH syndrome (EAS) is rare but is frequently a severe condition because of the
intensity of the hypercortisolism that may be dissociated from the tumoral condition. EAS …

Context: Ectopic ACTH secretion (EAS) is difficult to diagnose and treat. We present our
experience with EAS from 1983 to 2004. Setting: The study was performed at a tertiary care …

Ectopic adrenocorticotropic secretion (EAS) is responsible for 12-17% of cases of Cushing's
syndrome (CS) and covers a range of tumours, from undetectable benign lesions to …

Objective: Our objective was to evaluate the published literature and reach a consensus on

Ectopic Cushing's syndrome usually relates to the ectopic ACTH syndrome (EAS) and
represents∼ 20% of ACTH-dependent and∼ 10% of all types of Cushing's syndrome (CS) …

In the context of ACTH‐dependent Cushing's syndrome, ectopic ACTH secretion from a
neuroendocrine tumour is not uncommon, and needs to be carefully differentiated from …

Objective Evidence is limited regarding outcome of patients with ectopic Cushing's
syndrome (ECS) due to neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). Design We assessed the prognostic …

Objective Several series report on the relative contribution of ectopic ACTH syndrome (EAS)
in the spectrum of Cushing's syndrome. However, prevalence of EAS in patients with …

Endogenous Cushing syndrome is an endocrine disease caused by excessive secretion of
adrenocorticotropin hormone in approximately 80% of cases, usually by a pituitary …

Adrenal incidentalomas are adrenal masses detected on imaging performed for reasons
