S9E5: Adrenal Cushing’s: a conversation

Listen to this fascinating discussion of adrenal Cushing's or hypercortisolism as Dr. Lewis Blevins walks us through the disease's characteristics, biochemistry, and treatment options. In the talk, he focuses on different conditions, including adrenal adenomas, adrenal cancer, adrenal hyperplasia, and other related diseases like Carney Complex and McCune-Albright syndrome. Dr. Blevins also focuses on other situations where unrelated reasons lead to discovering adrenal adenomas or mild adrenal hyperplasia, resulting in pathological cortisol secretion. Finally, he closes the discussion with two recent cases from his practice that illustrate the issues related to these conditions.
