Ectopic Adrenocorticotropic Hormone

Ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone ( ACTH) syndrome is rare and identification of its source is often challenging. We report the case of an ectopic Cushing syndrome in a young adult male secondary to an occult ACTH producing atypical carcinoid tumor. Extensive biochemical and imaging workup was unrevealing. The diagnosis was aided by Ga-DOTA PET scan demonstrating a suspicious left upper lobe lung nodule. The patient underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic exploration with wedge resection and mediastinal lymphadenectomy of a T2aN2M0 atypical carcinoid, resulting in the normalization of ACTH levels and complete resolution of symptoms. The role of a Ga-DOTA PET scan in diagnosing pulmonary carcinoid tumors and their management are discussed.
