Ectopic ACTH production by a thymic carcinoid tumour.

E S McCaughey1, V Walker, C J Rolles, N I Scheurmier, A C Hale, L H Rees.   

Abstract

An ACTH-producing thymic carcinoid tumour was diagnosed in a 10-year-old girl, 8 years after bilateral adrenalectomy for Cushing's syndrome. The peptides produced by the tumour were characterised thoroughly. High circulating levels of beta-endorphin and other peptides may have contributed to mood and behaviour disturbances.
