Add time:07/22/2019 Source:sciencedirect.com
BackgroundApproximately 30% of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) present with secretory syndromes or develop one during the course of the disease. Cushing syndrome caused by a gastrointestinal tract NET is rare, with limited published information. We describe a patient with florid Cushing syndrome due to ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) from a NET of colonic origin. A literature review was conducted to describe the spectrum of this clinical and pathologic entity as reported in the scientific literature.
