Cushing's syndrome due to ACTH-production of an ovarian carcinoid.

R Schlaghecke1, G Kreuzpaintner, K F Bürrig, E Juli, H K Kley.   

Abstract

The case of a 56-year old woman with severe Cushing's syndrome due to ovarian ACTH-production is described. Both clinical picture and biochemical pattern were consistent with the ectopic ACTH syndrome. ACTH was found by specific immunohistochemical staining in a carcinoid tumor of the patient's right ovary. In contrast, pituitary cells exhibited immunoreactive ACTH to only a minimum extent.
