Abstract (English): | La sécrétion ectopique d'Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) par un phéochromocytome est une cause très rare du syndrome de Cushing, posant des difficultés diagnostiques et thérapeutiques. Nous rapportons le cas d'une patiente chez qui ce diagnostic a été suspecté devant un syndrome de Cushing sévère associé à une mélanodermie, une hypertension artérielle résistante à une trithérapie et un diabète déséquilibré sous insulinothérapie. Biologiquement, les dérivés méthoxylés urinaires, le cortisol libre urinaire de 24 heures ainsi que l'ACTH étaient très élevés. L'imagerie a montré une masse surrénalienne gauche de 3,5 cm. La patiente a bénéficié d'une surrénalectomie gauche après une préparation médicale avec une bonne évolution clinico-biologique. L'étude anatomopathologique a confirmé le diagnostic de phéochromocytome. Notre cas illustre l'intérêt du dosage des dérivés methoxylés devant tout syndrome de Cushing ACTH dépendant associé à une masse surrénalienne. Ceci dans le but d'assurer une prise en charge précoce et d'éviter les complications pouvant engager le pronostic vital. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
Abstract (French): | Ectopic ACTH-secreting pheochromocytoma is a very rare cause of Cushing's syndrome, posing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. We here report the case of a female patient with suspected severe Cushing's syndrome associated with melanoderma, arterial hypertension resistant to triple therapy and unbalanced diabetes treated with insulin therapy. Biologically, urinary ethoxylated, 24-hour urinary free cortisol and ACTH were very high. Imaging showed a 3.5 cm left adrenal mass. The patient underwent left adrenalectomy after medical preparation, with good clinico-biological outcome. Anatomopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of pheochromocytoma. This case study highlights the importance of measuring methoxylated derivatives in any patient with ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome associated with an adrenal mass. The aim is to ensure early treatment and avoid life-threatening complications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
