https://doi.org/10.14341/2071-8713-5246

Abstract

ACTH-ectopic hypercortisolism is one of the most соmplex variants of endocrine pathology presenting with v arious metabolic changes. Its early localization still represents a cornerstone of radical treatment of such patients. In this article w e discuss a clinical case of woman with ectopic secretion of ACTH by malignant lung carcinoid, which localization and therefore surgical treatment wаs possible only after three-year period of extensive diagnostic workup.
