Abstract

A 28-year-old primigravida with severe oligohydramnios and pre-eclamptic symptoms was found to have Cushing's syndrome caused by an adrenocortical tumor. After maternal therapy the amniotic volume normalised, but the fetus succumbed. As clinical features of pre-eclampsia and Cushing's syndrome may overlap, diagnosis can be delayed or even missed.
