Abstract
The level within the hypothalamic-pituitary axis at which isolated ACTH deficiency occurs, can be more clearly identified by assessing this axis with corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) and insulin induced hypoglycaemia. We report a case where lack of response to both tests, suggests a pituitary origin for this rare endocrine deficiency.Entities:
