This review highlights the eye and skin manifestations of endocrine-related metabolic diseases but provides no new clinical results.

This case report describes a functional adrenocortical oncocytoma that co-secreted testosterone and cortisol.

This article presents a unique case of post-partum panhypopituitarism and autoimmune conditions in a 37-year-old woman from Africa, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis and treatment to improve outcomes in similar settings.

The woman's symptoms and tests suggest her adrenal glands are producing too many male hormones.

This case study reports a patient with ACTH-driven cortisol secretion 14 years after adrenalectomy, suggesting possible residual adrenal tissue or extra-adrenal steroid synthesis, challenging the need for lifelong steroid replacement.

This case study reported a unique instance of a benign adrenal adenoma co-secreting cortisol and DHEA-S, which initially mimicked PCOS symptoms. Surgical removal resulted in significant clinical improvement, confirming the diagnosis of cyclic adrenal Cushing's syndrome.

This case report presents a rare instance of recurrent ACTH-independent Cushing’s syndrome due to PBMAH, coinciding with the development of a pheochromocytoma, highlighting the need for thorough reevaluation in similar recurring cases.

In this case study, a 44-year-old woman with an adrenal adenoma secreting both cortisol and androgens developed Cushing syndrome and significant virilization, but experienced major symptom improvement following surgical removal of the benign tumor.

In this case report, a rare instance of ACTH-independent hypercortisolism in a patient with long-standing Addison's disease led to the discovery of an adrenal cortical adenoma, successfully treated with adrenalectomy, underscoring the importance of considering functional adrenal tumors in such atypical biochemical scenarios.

This review discusses the etiology and clinical findings of atypical hyperadrenocorticism in dogs due to sex steroid imbalance and explores various treatment options, but reports no new results.

This case report describes a 63-year-old woman with hyperandrogenism due to an ectopic adrenal gland adenoma on the ovaries, successfully treated with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy.

This case study diagnosed a cat with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism, confirmed by specific hormonal tests and post-mortem findings of adrenal hyperplasia and a pituitary adenoma.

This case study details a 56-year-old man with initial misdiagnosed Addison's disease who was later found to have hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism and secondary hypothyroidism.

In this study, a 37-year-old female with resistant hypertension and signs of Cushing's syndrome and primary aldosteronism was found to have normal cortisol levels but high levels of cortisol and aldosterone via adrenal venous sampling, leading to a diagnosis confirmed by right adrenalectomy.

This case report describes a woman with hypertension, alopecia, and other symptoms, revealing that her condition was due to ovarian hyperthecosis, highlighting the overlap of adrenal and ovarian disorders.

This review discusses the physicochemical properties, binding mechanisms, and factors affecting corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) functions, but reports no new clinical results.

A young man with an eating disorder had a life-threatening adrenal crisis due to an autoimmune condition, highlighting the need for better education on managing hormone treatments.

This case report highlights the potential benefits of unilateral adrenalectomy in treating primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia, noting a high rate of remission and low risk of recurrence.

This case series highlights the risk of iatrogenic Cushing syndrome and adrenal insufficiency among immigrant patients using over-the-counter medications from other countries, which often contain hidden glucocorticoids marketed as vitamins, prompting clinicians to perform thorough medication histories for accurate diagnosis and management.

This case report detailed a unique instance of hypopituitarism in a 65-year-old male presenting with symptoms including nausea, vomiting, and fatigue, attributed to secondary adrenal insufficiency, which improved following appropriate cortisol treatment.

This study reported a rare case where a pheochromocytoma produced ACTH, leading to cyclic Cushing syndrome, and underscores the importance of considering this possibility in cases of ACTH-dependent hypercortisolism with an adrenal mass.

This report describes a rare case of ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone syndrome caused by a pheochromocytoma that unusually co-expresses both ACTH and corticotropin-releasing hormone.

This article discusses the complexities of diagnosing pituitary dependent hyperadrenocorticism in dogs and reports no new clinical findings, highlighting issues with varied symptoms and episodic hormone secretion complicating diagnosis.

This case report describes a testosterone- and cortisol-secreting adrenocortical oncocytoma causing hirsutism in a 23-year-old woman, highlighting adrenal oncocytomas as an important consideration for differential diagnosis.

This article reviews the characteristics, diagnosis, and management of premature adrenarche and suggests it may predict future ovarian hyperandrogenism in some adolescents; no new clinical results are reported.

This case study describes a 28-year-old woman with ACTH-independent Cushing's syndrome due to an adrenal adenoma, whose symptoms improved significantly after unilateral adrenalectomy.

In this case report, a 14-year-old cat was diagnosed with both hyperaldosteronism and hyperprogesteronism linked to a large adrenal tumor, highlighting the importance for clinicians to consider these concurrent conditions in similar cases.

This case report details a postmenopausal woman with hyperandrogenism due to both adrenal adenoma and ovarian hyperthecosis, highlighting the effectiveness of hormonal suppression and venous sampling for diagnosis.

This study found that surgical removal of adrenal glands resolved clinical signs of adrenocortical tumors and hyperplasias in ferrets, but cortisol levels were not excessively high.

This review discusses the physiological process of adrenarche, its impact on behavior and skeletal maturation, and its variability across sex and race, but reports no new clinical results.
