Cushing's syndrome: still a potential killing disease.

P A Younge1, D Shmidt, P G Wiles.   

Abstract

When Harvey Cushing described his syndrome in 1932 he named it the killing disease because of its cardiovascular complications. Heart failure is rarely reported as a presenting feature. We report a case in which left ventricular failure (LVF) was the predominant feature, associated with gross left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) which regressed after treatment.
