CONTEXT: Carney complex (CNC), a familial multiple neoplasm syndrome with dominant autosomal transmission, is characterized by tumors of the heart, skin, endocrine and peripheral nervous system, and also cutaneous lentiginosis. This is a rare syndrome and its main endocrine manifestation, primary pigmented nodular adrenal disease (PPNAD), is an uncommon cause of adrenocorticotropic hormone-independent Cushing's syndrome. CASE REPORT: We report the case of a 20-year-old patient with a history of weight gain, hirsutism, acne, secondary amenorrhea and facial lentiginosis. Following the diagnosing of CNC and PPNAD, the patient underwent laparoscopic bilateral adrenalectomy, and she evolved with decreasing hypercortisolism. Screening was also performed for other tumors related to this syndrome. The diagnostic criteria, screening and follow-up for patients and affected family members are discussed.

E Editorial

In the article that appeared on pages 639-644 of the November-December 2016 issue of the Serbian Archives of Medicine (Srpski arhiv za celokupno lekarstvo), the first five authors? surnames were misspelled (Zhanga, Xiaoa, Haoa, Lia, and Renb); the misspelled surnames should in fact read: Zhang, Xiao, Hao, Li, and Ren. The authors and the publisher regret this error. In the same article, an incorrect figure was published on page 642 instead of Graph 2. The publisher regrets this error. Below is the correct graph, as it should have appeared in the original publication of the article. <br><br><font color="red"><b> Link to the corrected article <u><a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.2298/SARH1612639Z">10.2298/SARH1612639Z</a></b></u>
