Abstract
Eighteen patients with Cushing's syndrome were analyzed retrospectively. Eleven patients had diffuse or adenomatous hyperplasia, 5 an adenoma and 3 a carcinoma. Iodocholesterol scanning provides considerable help in localization of the disease. Surgical treatment, while curative for benign cases, affects only slightly the course of malignant disease.Entities:
