ABSTRACT A patient is described in whom an ACTH-producing bronchial carcinoid tumour was found eighteen months after bilateral adrenalectomy for Cushing's syndrome. A critical review is given of laboratory methods used in the differential diagnosis of ectopic Cushing's syndrome. Finally a course of action is suggested by which such unnecessary ablative surgery might be avoided.

Ectopic Cushing’S Syndrome

A patient with ectopic Cushing's syndrome secondary to a malignant thymic carcinoid tumour was treated with the somatostatin analogue SMS 201–995. The administration of the drug subcutaneously in increasing doses over a 34 day period failed to control the ACTH or glucocorticoid excess.
